New York City drivers to pay extra tolls as part of first-in-the-nation
effort to reduce congestion

  Associated PressJune 26, 2023 GMT

  NEW YORK (AP) — New York will move forward with its first-in-the-nation
  plan to charge drivers extra in tolls to enter the core of New York
  City, part of an effort to reduce congestion, improve air quality, and
  raise funds for the city’s public transit system.

  The program is expected to begin in spring of 2024, bringing New York
  City, one of the most congested cities in the United States, in line
  with places like London, Singapore, and Stockholm that have implemented
  similar programs.

  Drivers entering Manhattan south of 60th Street will be charged a
  certain fee that still needs to be decided by the Metropolitan
  Transportation Authority, which is overseeing the long-stalled plan.

  The congestion pricing plan cleared its final federal hurdle after
  getting approved by the Federal Highway Administration, a spokesperson
  for New York Governor Kathy Hochul said on Monday. The Metropolitan
  Transportation Authority, which also oversees the city’s trains, buses,
  and commuter railroads, still needs to decide on any exemptions or
  discounts to the final toll rates.

  “With the green light from the federal government, we look forward to
  moving ahead with the implementation of this program,” Hochul, a
  Democrat, said in a statement.

  Under [78]one of several tolling scenarios, drivers could be charged up
  to $23 a day in an attempt to reduce the number of motorists on the
  road, according to an environmental assessment report released by
  officials August.

  Under that report, an estimated $1 billion in revenue from the tolls
  would be generated yearly, which would be used to finance borrowing to
  upgrade the city’s mass transit systems.

  The state Legislature approved a conceptual plan for congestion pricing
  back in 2019, but the coronavirus pandemic combined with a lack of
  guidance from federal regulators stalled the project.
