big policy win for New York, imagine how much better off we'd be if we had implemented this earlier

Like Paris, it takes time. At first everyone complained, now almost nobody drives. The city is SOOOOO much better, less noise, less pollution, less traffic, better walking experience. NIGHT AND DAY

Live long die hard car enthusiast here..get cars out of cities. Public trans, walkability are what we should be spending money on not more roads/parking

You’ll never know :

What about the economic impact? Less cars is going to mean less economic activity and that's a huge negative that no one seems to want to bring up...

Emily Is OK :
Let’s reclaim those streets and build wider sidewalks, dedicated bus lanes & bike lanes!

3.5% is underwhelming

Glad to be here before all the people who think we should pull up sidewalks to make way for more cars.

Yeah but when native New Yorkers haven’t seen any changes to the mta over the 10 years and everyone is like add congestion pricing. Yeah! We pay insurance, we pay vehicle registration. Traffic got pushed up. Make it make sense. No improvements on public transportation. Where’s is the money going to?

Congestion pricing doesn’t stop people from getting into the city they stop poor people from getting into the city.

Congestion pricing is the dumbest thing ever. How about Albany fixes the MTA rather than making working people pay for it.

tabs (they/ella)🍉 :
this was all designed by Andy Byford to fund the improvements to the MTA. it's almost like he's one of the best public transit beaurocrats the world has ever seen and Cuomo/DeBlasio should have let him do his job! bring him back!!

3.5% speed improvement is chump change compared to the cost. Less honking. What are we talking about here???

SuplexedSoul :
So the real question is were these things actually reduced, or simply displaced to somewhere else? Because if the latter, the societal benefit is illusory and the turd-can was just kicked to less affluent communities

Sebastian :
I don't understand the hate. I don't really care about it as a pedestrian, but as a driver it's phenomenal. Paying extra to have emptier roads is well worth it if I wanna have the luxury of driving somewhere in a single person car

aubrey lynne :

lesowtfk27v :
The energy that Lefitst Twitter and the NYT gave congestion pricing when the cost of rent is absolutely out of control, is the exact reason why Lefists don’t succeed on the national stage. These policies are painfully tone deaf and don’t make a positive impact on the most vulnerable people. People want lower rent—not more expensive transit.
