I am so much against all these versions of congestion pricing!
If they're bothered by congestion, start cracking down on parking violations, especially double-parking! Cut down on Uber! Start ticketing gridlock cars! Decrease transit fares and increase the number of buses, so that fewer people will take cabs!
Your Taxi or Uber Ride in Manhattan Will Soon Cost More
It is not enough that a subway fare increase could soon make traveling underground in New York City more expensive. The cost of getting around above ground is going up, too. An extra $2.50 fee will be tacked onto any yellow taxi rides in Manhattan that begin, end or pass through south of 96th street, and an extra $2.75 fee will be added for other for-hire vehicles, including Ubers and Lyfts — all before the car even starts.
