@shreddersaurusrex323 It wouldn't have helped. Pollution would've gotten worse but the MTA didn't care. Adding filters to some schools isn't gonna make air quality for those who go outside.
London's congestion charge has had disproportionate effects for the poorest communities, as shown in a 2021 study presented at the TRB's Conference on Advancing Transportation Equity. The richest 20% were able to shift to other transportation modes more easily, while the poorest 20% (who, for the most part, lack the luxury of having reliable options, if any) were priced out of central London.
The difference is when people get shifted to subways and buses in nyc the already overwhelmed and decrepit system can’t handle the current burden and you want to increase it 100 fold??? Let’s be honest that income not going to the mta and the people but to some scums back pocket while the every day worker suffers. The rich get richer the poor suffer.
My job is based in London and I hear mixed reviews. A majority of them use their underground (subway) but the difference is the UK actually invests heavily in that system. Not to mention it doesn’t run 24 hours. So its more efficient and cleaner.
TOLD YOU. And the worst part is that NYC’s public transportation infrastructure is in dire straights so if they implemented congesting pricing and it even did move more people to public transportation… it wouldn’t even be able to handle the increase!
@@Atrail_Mckinley4786 It’s because the people who took public transit and biking are the ones reaping the benefits. There is less space for cars, allowing these other transport methods to be viable. I think 2 things are clear: 1. There will never be enough space for cars. London, as with most other cities, doesn’t have space to allow more cars in. Cars are inherently inefficient in moving people as opposed to a bus (carries more in space of 3 cars) or people riding bikes (takes less space when many commuters are driving 5 passenger vehicles with 1 or 2 people inside). 2. The amount of people being moved needs to be measured. It seems like people who can take public transit or bike are able to much more than before, and for the reasons in point 1, even if CARS themselves aren’t moving faster, PEOPLE in terms of sheer volume are.
Yes car traffic has returned to pre-congestion pricing levels in London, but can you imagine what the gridlock would be like today if London hadn't done anything at all? If all the people who have since switched to cycling or taking the bus instead had to go back to driving? The revenue from congestion pricing has allowed London to create a transportation network that moves way more people than before. Even if traffic has remained flat, that sounds like a win to me!
"no clear answer" YET THE PEOPLE IN THE VIDEO SAY IT DOESN'T WORK. "It's a burden" "It just puts people in a bad mood" "It doesn't work" BUT NO CLEAR ANSWER, HUH?!

Soooooo sounds like this was never about reducing congestion but raising money like everyone said.
Don’t forget about the reduction of pollution while Bronx residents were tossed a few million $$ to deal with asthma.
@@shreddersaurusrex323And Brooklyn/NJ get to pay congestion pricing and suffer from increased traffic/polution

I don't get why the reporter says that it depends on who you talk too. It didn't work in London and it certainly wouldn't work in NYC.
You’re not thinking of the family in New York so sad
