"NYC Congestion Pricing Exemptions: MTA to Spare Buses and Municipal Vehicles"
TL;DR Summary
The MTA plans to exempt a significant portion of New York City's municipal car fleet and most private bus operators, including the Hampton Jitney, from its new $15 daily congestion toll in Manhattan. The exemption also extends to specialized city vehicles and private bus operators running regularly scheduled services. The MTA hopes to implement the toll in June, but the program is facing legal challenges. The congestion-pricing plan aims to reduce traffic in Midtown, cut pollution, and raise funds for public-transit improvements.
