Challenges Facing New York's Congestion Pricing Plan

Reported 1 day ago

New York's congestion pricing initiative, aimed at alleviating traffic and raising funds for public transport, has resumed after a pause by Governor Hochul. However, a legal challenge from New Jersey could hinder the plan's implementation. Starting January 5, drivers will be charged $9 to enter Manhattan's toll zone, reduced from the original $15. If the plan requires further federal review, it risks being delayed until after President-elect Trump takes office, who opposes the toll. New Jersey's Governor Murphy argues that the pricing will worsen congestion in his state, escalating the conflict.
