YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

New York City’s controversial congestion pricing initiative is gradually gaining support, although the new toll has yet to win over a majority of voters.

The fee started on Jan. 5, with most drivers paying $9 to enter Manhattan south of 60th street during peak hours. The goal is to ease traffic while raising revenue to help rehabilitate the city’s more than a century-old transit system.

About 40% of those polled across the state said the fee should be eliminated — as the Trump administration is seeking to do — while 33% believe the program should continue, according to a Siena College poll of registered voters released Monday. Opposition to congestion pricing has decreased slightly from a Siena poll in December, when 51% opposed the $9 toll while 29% were in favor.
