Description
Every morning, FedEx trucks park in the bike lane and sort packages. This morning there were 5 trucks parked in the bike lane. This causes danger to cyclists who have to veer into traffic on this major bike route.

In addition to 311, you would report stuff like this to this number :
NYPD Traffic Operations (Downtown) - 212-233-0878

Thanks, cyclosity. In New Haven there is a "watch area" set up so issues regarding FedEx trucks get reported directly to FedEx.
See http://www.seeclickfix.com/issues/8584.html for an example.

Hey Mark,
Can you create a watch area for FedEx so they get emails when their drivers do this.
just put-in "fed ex" fed-ex fedex for keywords so they don't miss any of them.
Random note: ever noticed the arrow in the negative space between the e and the x in FedEx. Now that's good design.

I set up a watch area so any issues about FedEx drivers can be sent directly to the company.
Typing in the plate # and time can be helpful at resolving these.

Also report them to http://www.nyc.mybikelane.com
And post the links on twitter with this hashtag :

This also happens on 6th avenue and West 26th St, every weekday morning. They don't park in the bike lane, but do sort their packages in it. There's usually room to do it elsewhere, but they choose not to do so.
Fedex, please inform your employees that this behavior is dangerous andillegal.
