0:16Now PlayingThe Trump administration is moving to block New York City’s congestion pricing program, reversing a federal approval granted last year and setting up a legal showdown over the tolling initiative.
The Federal Highway Administration plans to withdraw its agreement with the state-run Metropolitan Transportation Authority, which allowed the agency to impose tolls on drivers entering some of Manhattan’s busiest streets, US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said in a statement on Wednesday. The decision will likely halt the program, which began operating just last month.
“New York State’s congestion pricing plan is a slap in the face to working class Americans and small business owners,” Duffy said in a statement. “Every American should be able to access New York City regardless of their economic means. It shouldn’t be reserved for an elite few.”
