I'm going from Creston, OH to Brooklyn, NY- any advice?
Route given to me is as follows:
80E to 287S to 24E to 78E
NJ Turnpike (95?) South to Goethals Bridge
278 toward Staten Island and Brooklyn
Pass Manhattan Bridge (No idea what this means)
Get off at Metropolitan, straight off ramp about 2 blocks to traffic light.
Right at light onto Metropolitan Ave. Go 7-8 blocks to traffic light at Morgan Ave.
Consignee is at corner of Morgan and Metropolitan-
They said to turn right on Morgan, then keep turning left until back on Metropolitan with shippers gates on Left side. Park along right side of Metropolitan, go to sleep and consignee will wake in AM to back into dock.
Has anybody been in this area, and do these directions make sense? How safe is this neighborhood, and how hard is it to maneuver in that area with a 250" wheelbase truck and 48' reefer? Any other advice for this area? I have done the cross bronx, throgs neck, and LIE, but never into Brooklyn or Staten Island before.
