Magnolia Delivery Truck Study Magnolia Service Access Observe delivery truck habits along Magnolia Ave. in Fort Worth, TX. Survey local businesses and restaurants along the street about their means and methods of service access regarding receiving large produce deliveries and loading zones. The dense urban street makes the circulation of large semi-trucks difficult, and complaints from the adjacent residential neighborhood of trucks being disruptive have been noted. Catalog, analyze, diagram, and present findings and possible design solutions to the city Small Business Council and neighborhood representatives. SURVEY 1. What days of the week are deliveries? 2. What time of day does are deliveries? 3. From what companies are deliveries from? 4. How large are these deliveries typically? 5. What size vehicles are used to make deliveries? 6. When receiving deliveries, where do are the delivery trucks parked? 7. Are there any questions or concerns you may have about the methods of product delivery to local businesses in the area?
