Zones
limited truck zones
Zones A-E; Garment District
No operator of a truck shall operate, enter, stop, stand or park his/her vehicle upon any streets designated within these "Limited Truck Zones," except for the purpose of making a delivery, loading or servicing within said zone and traveling on the respective routes as designated in Sections 4-13(d)(1)(3) and 4-13(d)(1)(4) of the New York City Traffic Rules.
Financial District; Midtown Core
No operator of a vehicle having an overall length of 33 feet or more shall enter his/her vehicle upon any streets include within these "Limited Truck Zones" as designated in Section 4-13(d)(1)(6) of the New York City Traffic Rules.
Entity and Attribute Overview
The Local Truck Route Network is designated for trucks with an origin and destination for the purpose of delivery, loading or servicing within a borough. Trucks should only use non-designated routes for the purpose of accessing their destination. The Through Truck Route Network is primarily composed of major urban arterials and highways and must be used by trucks that have neither an origin or destination within the borough. Manhattan and Staten Island contain Limited Truck Zones (as depicted on the Truck Route Map) with special time and size restrictions. All commercial vehicles and trucks are prohibited from utilizing the Parkway system in New York City.
