A Freight Plan for the NYMTC Region<br />
2.3.2 Inadequate Access to Freight Handling Facilities<br />
As shown in Figure 2.12, landside access is inadequate to many existing or potential major<br />
<strong>freight</strong> generators in the region, such as JFK International Airport, Hunts Point Market,<br />
the Brooklyn waterfront, and rail intermodal terminals. Figure 2.13 shows the limitations<br />
on <strong>regional</strong> highway access to airports. For example, truck access to JFK depends on the<br />
congested Van Wyck Expressway, since trucks are prohibited from the Belt Parkway and<br />
must cross Brooklyn on local arterials.<br />
