@fox5newyork: Businesses are worried that they’ll feel the negative impact of NYC congestion pricing, from the extra cost of deliveries to drivers being more reluctant to trek to Manhattan. #fox5newyork #nyc #newyorkcity #newyorkers #congestionpricing #restaurants
It’s $14 for an entire box truck worth of food and supplies. That’s just peanuts. You’re paying way more in excess labor and gas when the roads are so congested that you’re sitting in traffic all day.

Its $9 distributed on $50k worth of products in a truck.. comeone lets be seriouse, its not a toll on each item crossing..

Fact: one commercial truck coming into the city will pay congestion pricing one time. But then will charge every stop a congestion price free. Hence making a profit off the congestion pricing.

As a neighbor in Jersey, we love the city, but $100 per visit just in tolls and parking, is not feasible on a disabled income. Taking the bus only gets me to PAuthority, I’ll have to take a taxi

It’s not a big deal. The real reason they are complaining is because a lot of these business owners live and queens and want to drive to manhattan instead of just taking the subway 🙄🙄🙄.

Tbh the distributors will probably just tack it onto the freight charge they already add onto every invoice anyway. Not saying it’s right, but I also don’t think it’s as catastrophic as the reporter

This is lazy journalism. No references to the feasibility studies or what actual impacts to businesses will be. Effectively talking to people about their feelings. I live in HK and I support the plan.

$9 is not going to drastically affect prices for bulk deliveries, any business that has a major price increase because of this is using this as a cover for price gouging.

I would think the ease of movement for the delivery truck should offset the fees. They should be able to deliver to more stores in less time. Should reduce driver costs
