This bill would require the Department of Transportation (DOT) to establish freight impact zones on the streets near freight terminals where action is needed to prevent congestion and other disruptions caused by long queues of trucks waiting to enter the terminal. After establishing these zones, DOT would work with the Police Department and other relevant agencies to take preventative and enforcement actions like establishing lanes that prohibit truck staging and idling, deploying traffic control personnel, and authorizing immediate towing of trucks that block residences and businesses. Freight terminals within the purview of DOT that border a freight impact zone would be required to create and submit annual plans to prevent truck queues. The bill would also require DOT to publish information about freight impact zones on its website and send an annual report to Speaker of the Council and Mayor.
