Bill > A05410

This bill amends the New York State highway law to authorize the New York City Department of Transportation to create a rule allowing single-unit commercial vehicles with up to three axles and ten tires to use the Korean War Veterans Parkway in Richmond County. Currently, parkways are typically restricted to pleasure vehicles (personal, non-commercial vehicles) with access only at designated points. The bill expands on a previous exception that already allows similar commercial vehicles on a portion of the Grand Central Parkway. By permitting these specific commercial vehicles on the Korean War Veterans Parkway, the bill provides more flexibility for commercial transportation in that area while maintaining the general restriction on commercial vehicle usage on parkways. The change would take effect immediately upon passage, giving the city's transportation department the discretion to implement the new rule.
