The MTA's congestion pricing plan is officially set to take effect this weekend, January 5, 2025, imposing extra charges for commuters entering Manhattan's Central Business District.
For ridesharing services like Lyft and Uber, the new congestion pricing will mean an additional fee of $1.50 per trip, resulting in higher costs for users.
To mitigate the impact of the congestion charge, Lyft is offering a $1.50 ride credit for those hit by the fee throughout January, automatically applied to qualifying riders.
Lyft's initiative aims to ease the financial burden on New Yorkers who rely on ridesharing while pursuing a resolution to make NYC rides more affordable.
