NYC's economic vitality and urban livability rely on a sophisticated logistics and supply chain network. Serving 8.5 million residents, supporting over 4 million jobs, and welcoming 62 million tourists annually, the city's well-being hinges on efficient goods movement. Nearly 90% of our city's goods are truck-delivered, underscoring the need for revolutionary last-mile delivery strategies.
The Freight Mobility Unit focuses on enhancing the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of goods movement, while mitigating the adverse effects of truck traffic on infrastructure and communities. The team stives to integrate these objectives to preserve the city's livability and simultaneously bolster New York City's economic competitiveness and vitality.
The unit seeks to hire 1 candidate to serve the freight unit to support a variety of projects that further the goals of the NYC Streets Plan and Better Buses. The selected candidate will support corridor planning, public outreach, and stakeholder engagement efforts related to transit priority, bus operations, freight movement, curb management, and street design projects. Responsibilities will include coordinating with internal NYCDOT units such as Transit Development, Parking, Traffic Operations, and Borough Offices to ensure transit improvements are balanced with commercial loading, delivery operations, and freight access needs.
The candidate may assist in developing presentations, public materials, and outreach strategies for community boards, business improvement districts (BIDs), trucking associations, freight industry stakeholders, transportation providers, and neighborhood organizations. The candidate will help identify opportunities where transit and freight initiatives can complement one another to improve safety, mobility, curb utilization, and overall street efficiency.
The candidate would also support data collection and stakeholder outreach efforts to identify delivery needs, engage local businesses, and develop curb management solutions such as neighborhood loading zones, Off-Hour Delivery accommodation, or designated Microhubs. This approach helps maintain and support efficient goods movement while advancing transit reliability, pedestrian safety, and key mayoral objectives. This is an opportunity to work with a team dedicated to improving safety, accessibility, and mobility throughout New York City.
