Expansion of truck parking at John F. Kennedy Airport will reduce the number of illegal parking

On August 5, 2025, work began on expanding truck parking at John F. Kennedy Airport in Queens. The project will triple the number of parking spaces and create up to 100 new truck parking spaces.
The new space is being created by demolishing an abandoned building and includes toilets. The construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2026.

The expansion is aimed at solving the problem of illegal truck parking on the streets of Queens. Local officials and residents hope this will improve safety and the environment in the area.
