The judge who gave the thumbs up to this nonsense should be fired along with the governor and MTA chairman now the problem is what are going to happen with the parades this year on Fifth Ave in the next two months and beyond
I want to thank Congestion Kathy for making my life THAT much more difficult and unaffordable. I am a caregiver for my mother with Alzheimer’s. I am a lifelong resident of Manhattan. I now make under $40K a year. I struggle to put food on the table every day and pay my bills and LEGITIMATE TAXES already. I guess it’s not only the republicans who punch down...
I'm so tired of the fools who really think it will mean less traffic. Every business in Manhattan still needs deliveries. Taxis will still be driving around. Hospital workers will still be driving in. They argued congestion then made E-Bike legal and now you see swarms of them all over NYC. People are getting robbed and run over on the sidewalks. This was NEVER about congestion it's about another source of cash.
When they built the throggs neck bridge they said they’ll get rid of the toll once the bridge is paid off. Still waiting for that. All these tolls are a scam!
Mta should find another way to get funds in its operation, where so many holes people do not pay the trip almost in every station, dirty station conditions, subway always delayed, no signal, repair almost every weekend never ends, now so many criminals in the subway with homeless who make the subway as their shelter at all times. This congection price will burden transportation and make the price of every item high for all classes.
Welp, the MTA just made everyone is NY lives more expensive. Dont be surprised when stuff costs more next time you set foot in the supermarket. That $5 gallon of milk will be $7 & that $4 dozen of eggs will be $6. Thank Gov. Hochul for that.
That makes no sense because we regular New Yorkers over here carry stuff in our car on a daily whether it be stuff for work or daily grocery shopping. Adding another bill to peoples already difficult life is dumb. This is absolutely abhorrent
Audit the MTA, they waste so much money on a yearly basis. This toll is nothing more than a scam. Bridge and tunnel tolls are way out of control too. Making millions a day and still crying the blues. Such BS!
Not for long. People in NJ say NO. I believe president Trump will say NO too. Why do people have to pay money just to go to doctors in upper Manhattan because you thevies say so. Highway Robbery
This is pure scam,everyday this city is giving me a reason to move out of this state.It’s simply ridiculous at this point.Why don’t you clean up the streets and make the subway cleaners and safer?
I see a lot of support for this. Less cars and noise . With that here comes inflation in grocery and restaurant prices for sure. 19 dollars for delivery trucks.
In the very beginning of time when the more up-to-date NYC bridges were constructed, tolls were set in place mainly to pay for the cost of the bridges construction and nothing else. Now the state of New York uses tolls on all the bridges and tunnels as a pacifier to support Any shortages of budgets for every project and initiative in the state. Perhaps the federal government should do a audit of everything going on in New York State to see why the money is not there or what money is being wasted on.
Dear Steve and Roseanne Scotto, we the citizens of NYC 🗽 understand inflation but the next time you interview an MTA executive please 🙏 I beg you to ask him/her who thought it was a bright idea to purchase and install multiple useless monitors large screens to place inside stations. These monitors are USELESS! They’re smashed by homeless people. They don’t work! And they’re not screening anything people are interested in. Instead the could’ve just added 1-2 more of those timers at each end of the stations as opposed to just one at the very end of the station. You could create larger booths for the clerks! TAKE CARE OF THE CLERKS! Find out who made the decision to purchase these useless monitors!
It should cost more that’s pretty cheap and New Yorkers don’t mind being taken advantage of , these politicians need more money , you love you governor and believe in her
At the end of 2019, over 38,000 people moved out of NYC, while I don’t know the overall number between that year and the end of 2024, I know one thing for certain, they will be a hell of a lot more people Shipping themselves out of NYC for good once this goes into effect
I thought Trump was for state rights? If a state wants to do this they should be allowed to, we don’t need the federal government telling everyone what to do.
Well I guess business will either change their hours or shut down all together. This is a bad decision for the people. If they would watch where all the money is being misappropriated they would gain millions.and if people won’t pay public transportation fare then good luck with everything.
Ridiculous you don't have a clue as to what you're talking about. Manhattan and NYC will ALWAYS have cars, this is just another burden for everyone. They need to get rid of all those damn taxies, at least reduce the number down, way too many for hire vehicles in the zone, and they all come in with their passengers for a measly fee that the passengers cover. They can RESTRICT all the streets they want in the CBD and actually remove "congestion" they could allow MTA Buses and Trucks Taxies only on certain streets and issue tickets to any regular cars that go through. They could mandate most deliveries to overnight hours to remove that element from peak times. INSTEAD they go for the easy blanket burdening TAX on everyone, absolutely ridiculous.
This is so unjustice, maybe it doesn’t matter to rich people's bt it’s really matter for the low class and middle class people’s... And another things that rich people's don’t give a fk to the environment at all... They just want too makes more and more money that's all... and mta better work in the subways safety....

City and state government doesn't care about anything but money
This is Gary's IN come about
They need budgets to work with
Keep on voting for those good old democrats. They never saw a tax they didn't like. Free money in their pockets is all they are concerned about.
They only care about themselves
Tax the working middle class thats struggling more than ever before, you all voted for those politicians.
will increasing fare more money to up now🤣
The mta chairman needs to resign and be investigated
Janno Lieber should be in jail
Jail those bums 1
and clawback his bloated salary.
They should also forgo their pensions and put that money into upgrading the system rather than raising fares repeatedly
All i know is if ur a ghost plate dealer, ur biz is about to BOOM!
HMU when you find one
@PraisefatherYah are you law enforcement or affiliated with any?
Recall Hochul and audit the MTA.
Yeah right 😂😂😂😂
Crime is really goin to skyrocket now!
I knew that MTA will be increasing fare price maybe 3.50 or 5.00 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mental health, Homelessness and Illegal migrants are the real challenges
@@gbottle0521 one way ride to hell or heaven
And fare evasion
Boycott begins at Sunday
The judge who gave the thumbs up to this nonsense should be fired along with the governor and MTA chairman now the problem is what are going to happen with the parades this year on Fifth Ave in the next two months and beyond
Especially st. Patrick's day. I think a lot of folks may stay home.
All democrat voters should pay higher taxes than the rest of the people.
Expect ghost license plates skyrocket, subway fare beatings, mess at Triboro, GWB, other violations as populations acts of retaliation
Thats going on right now. Just expect to see even more of it come Sunday. To me, the best way to protest it is to simply not pay.
FUNNY PART IS EVEN GHOST PLATES WILL GO UP KNOWING PEOPLE WILL NEED EM LOL. ITS A LOSE LOSE LOL
@@jjmcg9184exactly. Just dont pay
@bfyre1 but it'll save them lots of money in the long run. I'd rather pay $50 for a ghost plate then to get charged 6 times to enter below 60th st.
@@jjmcg9184 you aint lying i agree lol. I live below 60th. The only benefit i see is that i get off after 9pm so it will be $2.25 for me.

You can apply for low income exemption.
If you are a lifelong resident of Manhattan that doesn't show you have a high IQ.
Effing MTA smh 🤦 😤
Trump will force NYC to stop congestion pricing it’s not over
I was reading that it will be impossible for him to shut it down, once it starts.
@ if he withholds federal funding to NY state unless they end congestion pricing they will have no choice but to end it
RIGHT BACK AT YAH FDT.
Blue state
@gbottle0521 JUST LIKE I SAID RIGHT BACK AT YAH FDT POINT 👉 BLANK # REAL TALK.

After a while NYC will look like Detroit. Just keep voting those democrats in. NYC is doomed.
That $9 going be $15 by 2028 and $20 by 2030😂😂 there's one thing Democrats states do well is find new ways to increase price/ create new tax.
When they built the throggs neck bridge they said they’ll get rid of the toll once the bridge is paid off. Still waiting for that. All these tolls are a scam!
Increase price, increase tax, spend and waste our tax money to other countries
yeah yeah yeah🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can’t wait to leave this hell hole of a city.,
Life is so much better outside of it.
Same here
Bye
Run
Stop driving your car if you had one.
Mta should find another way to get funds in its operation, where so many holes people do not pay the trip almost in every station, dirty station conditions, subway always delayed, no signal, repair almost every weekend never ends, now so many criminals in the subway with homeless who make the subway as their shelter at all times.

What a scam.
The new Detroit.
Another traitor to the people
The supporters of this are blind and crazy its not going to make things any better.
Things will be much worse. Everything will go up in price & businesses are gonna go belly up.
So where will all these New tolls go ???? I'm getting tired of all this STUPIDITY
No doubt the mta CEO is the first person in line to get salary raise
Not good
Slow transition to 15 minute city
That makes no sense because we regular New Yorkers over here carry stuff in our car on a daily whether it be stuff for work or daily grocery shopping. Adding another bill to peoples already difficult life is dumb. This is absolutely abhorrent
The taxis should boycot and block that whole intersection!
Audit the MTA, they waste so much money on a yearly basis. This toll is nothing more than a scam. Bridge and tunnel tolls are way out of control too. Making millions a day and still crying the blues. Such BS!
Stealing from drivers, to give to the mta. This is legal?
For the people that agrees with congestion pricing you never passed your drivers test
I support this, the funds it raised could help improve public transit for everyone. I have a license and drove since I was 18.
@@leeman1525 You know this is the MTA your talking about right...?
Judge must be a Biden appointee.
The MTA gave a larger bribe to the judge.
# RIGHT HERE YOU MEAN TRUMP NOT BIDEN & ALSO RIGHT BACK AT YAH FDT.

NEW YORK SUKS IM LEAVING..IM MOVING TO ANOTHER STATE..THIS STATE TOO EXPENSIVE OVERRATED AND COMPLETE TRASH...
Not for long. People in NJ say NO. I believe president Trump will say NO too. Why do people have to pay money just to go to doctors in upper Manhattan because you thevies say so. Highway Robbery
Will businesses stay open very late past 9pm?
They probably will. To avoid extra charge on delivery fees
Just stay out of manhattan for the next 3 weeks if you can help it.
“If you can make it in NY, you can make it anywhere.” Of course you can! Because no other city/state abuses its middle class residents like NY does.
This is pure scam,everyday this city is giving me a reason to move out of this state.It’s simply ridiculous at this point.Why don’t you clean up the streets and make the subway cleaners and safer?
A person has to be a halfwit to live in NYC or Chicago. They keep voting in the same party and deserve what they get.

Less air pollution.

Legal robbery
Did they learn nothing from last month?
Seems liike Trump is the last hope
Lol
He needs to hold back funding until they scrap it.
Anyone that doesn't have to be in NYC, will stay away.
Particularly Manhattan. I really dont even go there anymore unless i have to catch the train or bus. Besides that, i stick with the outer boroughs.
congestion pricing will be pass down to consumers, so everything will be More expensive in lower Manhattan.
Just know MTA will always get what they want.
TRUMP GET ON THIS WE OUT YOU IN OFFICIAL, THEY DID THIS RIGHT BEFORE YOU GET SEATED AS PRESIDENT, LIKE CHILDERN
I thought Trump was for state rights? If a state wants to do this they should be allowed to, we don’t need the federal government telling everyone what to do.
Yes , i win for NYC residents 👍 we got better lawyers 😄
I get the less traffic but there should be another alternative . I can think about a few examples internationally
Im wondering how much money this judge got under the table
This is the type of thing tou should have a vote for.
It time to leave nyc for good we need to leave this city
Stop driving your car and go to walkable cities.
NY/NJ get ready to pay more.
For everything.
Less traffic 🤔 why city have blocked lane? Bike even not riding in bike lane they should unblock lane.
Well looks like people will be buying something for Their license plates real soon
M(T)Afia collects what it need$
