Increased truck traffic

USA Today (Society for the Advancement of Education), Dec, 2004

> Increased truck traffic at the busiest border crossing between the U.S. and Canada is contributing to a clustering of asthma cases among residents who live nearby, according to University at Buffalo (N.Y.) researchers. Residents of neighborhoods located within one-third of a mile of the Peace Bridge in Buffalo are four times more likely to suffer from asthma than those who live more than 1.25 miles away.
