NEW YORK -- The reintroduction of New York City congestion pricing tolls will be discussed at an MTA board meeting today. Last week, Gov. Kathy Hochul announced she wants to launch congestion pricing in early January 2025, but she wants to lower the toll to enter Manhattan below 60th Street from $15 to $9.

The MTA board voted to approve the revised NYC congestion pricing plan after it was unpaused last week by New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, who believes the fees are necessary to pay for subway and bus upgrades.
