Congestion Pricing in NYC
From Streetsblog, Paterson Backs Pricing, Introduces Bill in Albany
Congestion Pricing in NYC may yet live. The politics are that the excess revenue from pricing goes to support transit. Locals support (generally), while auto commuters and others who drive into Manhattan oppose. I still have issues with an area scheme vs. a cordon scheme (the latter should have lower collection costs), but again this is a perfect vs. good situation.
My class did a case study on this last semester here
