New York Launches First US Congestion Charge to Combat Traffic

Credited from: BBC

  • New York City has become the first city in the US to implement a congestion charge scheme for vehicles.
  • The charge is up to $9 per day for most drivers, with higher fees for commercial vehicles.
  • This initiative aims to alleviate the city's severe traffic congestion and generate revenue for public transport.
  • The plan has faced significant opposition, notably from President-elect Donald Trump and local taxi driver associations.
  • A judge recently denied efforts to block the scheme, which comes after New York City was named the world's most congested urban area.
