NYC's zone-based congestion toll will charge drivers to enter lower Manhattan, which could improve local air quality and fund mass transit improvements.
The project, which begins in the spring of 2024, will increase the tolls drivers pay to enter points of Manhattan south of 60th street.
"The strategies that we're talking about are not anti-car," said Janette Sadik-Khan, former commissioner of New York City's Department of Transportation. "If you don't have any other choice than to drive, that's not a good outcome." "Expansion tends to be the sexy and fun thing, which we've done. But the kind of stuff that our customers don't see is power upgrades, track upgrades and signal upgrades," said Richard Davey, President of New York City's Transit Authority.
"The manufacturer that the hydrogen technology uses is zero emission. That's a nascent technology," said Davey to CNBC.
