Governor Hochul postpones the congestion pricing tolling plan set to be implemented on June 30 indefinitely to aid NYC's financial recovery post-pandemic and remote work policies.
Mayor Eric Adams supports the delay, emphasizing the need to ensure congestion pricing doesn't overly burden New Yorkers, with other elected leaders also commending the decision.
Opposition to the tolling plan came from various groups like unions, drivers, passengers with disabilities, and lawsuits aimed to stop its implementation.
Elizabeth Adams from Transportation Alternatives criticizes the delay, highlighting that it disappoints New Yorkers reliant on public transportation while giving in to the program's adversaries.
