In August, HNRK was retained to defend the nation's largest bridge and tunnel authority in a lawsuit brought by an association of trucking companies specializing in hauling sand, gravel and other construction materials across the metropolitan region. The trucking group sued New York's Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority  ("TBTA") after the TBTA refused passage across its bridges to trucks carrying loads beyond the legal limit of 80,000 pounds. The truckers were accustomed to bringing greater loads across the Throgs Neck Bridge but TBTA ordered the weight limit strictly enforced following an inspection of the bridge which revealed significant deterioration and safety issues. The trucking group challenged TBTA's enforcement of the 80,000 pound limit , maintaining that its members were entitled to continue carrying the overweight loads across the Throgs Neck as well as TBTA's other bridges.

HNRK led a team of TBTA bridge engineers and law enforcement officers to the injunction hearing which was held in New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan, before Justice Paul Feinman. After hearing the evidence, Justice Feinman declined the truckers request for an injunction, sustaining the safety concerns and prerogatives of HNRK's client.

HNRK previously fended off two applications by the trucking group seeking temporary restraining orders pending the hearing on the injunction. The litigation is ongoing.
