New York City kicked off the first congestion pricing program in the U.S., part of an effort to reduce the number of vehicles in the world’s most traffic-clogged urban area.

New York’s controversial plan to charge drivers a toll for entering Manhattan’s central business district starting on Jan. 5 is facing a last-ditch challenge from neighboring New Jersey.

New Jersey asked a federal judge to block New York from moving forward on Jan. 5 with a plan to charge drivers entering Manhattan’s central business district while a legal challenge plays out.

New York’s controversial congestion pricing project cleared a pair of hurdles as two federal judges declined to put the traffic plan on hold just weeks before it is scheduled to begin.

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy said that while he’s committed to trying to block New York City’s congestion pricing plan, he’s open to negotiating a deal that would allocate a portion of the revenue to his state.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority approved a revised congestion pricing plan for Manhattan that President-elect Donald Trump has threatened to terminate once he takes office.

It will cost $9 for motorists driving into parts of Manhattan starting in January under a revised tolling plan that New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is seeking before Donald Trump takes office.

NEW YORK — Gov. Kathleen Hochul is negotiating a modified version of congestion pricing with the feds that would start the Manhattan toll at $9 per day before ramping it back up to the $15 plan.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul was sued over her pause on the city’s traffic congestion pricing plan by an advocacy group that claims she had no legal authority to put the program on hold.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has indefinitely postponed a plan to charge motorists driving into much of Manhattan, upending an initiative that was slated to kick in at the end of the month.
