According to Juan Haro of MOM, the relocation of the fish market would increase truck traffic in the neighborhood to dangerous levels. Up to 11,000 trucks pass through Hunts Point every day, bringing not only noise and pollution, but fear as well to the neighborhoods 8,000 residents. Heavy truck traffic on residential streets has caused a number of accidents, some resulting in death. MOM is calling for the NYCDEC to keep heavy traffic off of residential streets. With our proposal, we hope to prevent more deaths caused by truck accidents. We want the NYCDEC to consider our plan, but so far they have only avoided us, said Blanche Surace, MOM member.
