While deemed "productive" by Hochul's office, specific discussions remain under wraps, and a looming deadline imposes pressure. Past reports indicate a positive shift in public perception towards congestion pricing amid concerns over spillover traffic. Contextual analyses criticize the paralysis affecting infrastructure developments in New York, highlighting historical challenges faced by city planners. Meanwhile, financial hurdles for NYC DOT arise from halted funding related to transportation safety efforts.
"Productive" can mean anything, but one thing is true: today marks four days until the illegal and arbitrary deadline that Trump set for Hochul to turn off the cameras.
