Description
Hi,
I didn't know how to categorize this report. Heavy trucks transit on our street fairly regularly during the week, sometimes even at night and it makes the whole house shake every time. I would like to know if there is a way to limit the hours or the type of transit in this street. I'm willing to provide more information.
Thank you!

Given current roadway construction work in this area, road conditions are constantly changing, and may impact truck related noise. If there specific conditions, such as loose plates that make noise when cars or trucks go over them, please contact the construction team (contact information can be found here: (http://www.cambridgema.gov/theworks/ourservices/engineering/~/link.aspx?_id=115C98D13C284AD892AAA0543CAD7219&_z=z)
Banning trucks on local roads is a complex process that requires state approval. Even when successful, truck restrictions do not apply to trucks with local origin or destination. Given the nearby commercial and industrial land use, it is likely that truck traffic on Bay State Road is local truck traffic, and will therefore not be impacted by a truck ban.
