    • Wednesday: NYC DOT holds a public meeting on its plans to reroute truck traffic through the Maspeth neighborhood. 6:00 p.m.
    • Also Wednesday: Last month, DOT added delivery zones along Brooklyn's Church Avenue, with the goal of easing congestion caused by double-parking and cruising. The department will update Community Board 14 on the project so far. 7:00 p.m.
