"NYC Makes History with $15 Manhattan Congestion Toll Approval"

The MTA board has approved a $15 toll for drivers entering Manhattan's busiest streets, set to be enforced in June, despite public criticism and legal challenges. The tolls will vary for different vehicle types and times of entry, with the aim of reducing congestion and generating revenue for transit upgrades. Critics argue that the toll could unfairly target some drivers and push traffic and pollution into other areas, leading to lawsuits from New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy and labor unions.
