This is crazy! We already pay an arm and leg for all the tolls. When the Verrazano was built, It was said the tolls would stop and look at the price now. It's insane. Where is the money going?????
funny cause express buses cost seven dollars. People in Staten Island are just still gonna drive. I can see why they're opposed to it. I don't support it in general, I'd like to see a full audit of MTA actually using the money they already received for stuff that actually benefits to MTA and not a ski resort in upstate.
MTA is another seriously corrupt NYC organization and 100% should be investigated for misuse of tax payer money and other fraud like giving out favor contracts for kick backs etc.
Free means Free. Get rid of Congestion Pricing. Get rid of Kathy Hochul. Lot needs money to pay for all fuel costs in new york city. Thanks from Republican make it go free in new york city. Think about Downtown Chicago everyone drive for free. I'm from Illinois i think about wisconsin they have no tollway on the highway you can get on the highway for free.
upgrades to public transit, faster 1st responding times, less congestion. Chicago is less dense and not on an embankment. Just look at the benefits of congestion pricing to understand
@colbzyk2128 Free means Free in new york city not congestion pricing. Thank from Republican make it go free in new york city. Kathy Hochul is Fallon. Get rid of Kathy Hochul. I'm from Illinois. think about Downtown Chicago everyone drive for free. Who cares about the money in new york city. Jb pritzker is Fallon. Gavin Newsom is Fallon. Joe Biden is Fallon about high fuel prices on 2022. I'm republican I didn't go to college I was special education student. Think about a wisconsin they have no tollway on the highway everyone drive for free on the highway. Remember Free means Free in new york city new york is no pay on Congestion Pricing. Lot people need a money to pay for all fuel costs in new york city.
Good, parkways should be for bikes and pedestrians, not cars. It’s called a parkway, because they are for parks, greenery, so this should mean they should be for pedestrians and cyclists, rather than prioritizing cars.
@@louisjohnson3755well this is a city not Europe. Not everyone who work in NYC have access to transportation . NYC should not prioritize bike and pedestrian plazas while that itself will cause more traffic.
@@dandan1472 most people in nyc take public transit, so making parkways pedestrian and bike friendly wouldn’t be a problem and traffic in nyc should not be a concern
@louisjohnson3755 Not everyone can use public transportation. You can't make deliveries on a train. Driving is often the more quicker and convenient option. You people are so out of touch that it's no wonder why the Democratic party loses elections.
Majority of New Yorkers don't want congestion pricing. This governor is a BLM supporter, sanctuary city supporter, and a bail reform supporter. Vote her out and clean up NY.
NYC MTA can’t go after rider cheaters so they go after the easy target. It’s never about congestion it’s about the short fall. We normal people have to pay for those who didn’t. Same for retail theft we normal people are paying for the extra security and the theft of those who broke the law. Never mind the illegal immigrant.
Manhattan traffic is way too crowded. I live in one of the 5 boroughs and commute 90-120 minutes on public transit (each way) to work in upper Manhattan 5 days/week. I know this is my choice… but we all need to suck it up. Where is the environmental impact study for the amount of pollution that’s already in the city because everyone and their mama wants to drive in….
What specific concerns are Staten Island lawmakers raising about the impact of congestion pricing, and what alternatives are they proposing to address traffic and transportation issues?
With congestion pricing, it will increase traffic in Staten Island and other parts of the metro area. Why should a minority of NYC residents get less traffic but more NYC residents who don't live in the CBD be subjected to worse traffic. The MTA gets 19 billion a year, yet they are not a fiscally responsible transit agency. It should not cost $100 million to build elevators. Grand Central Madison shouldn't have been$ 7 billion overbudget

Blame the drivers trying to avoid congestion pricing, rather than congestion pricing itself. Like let’s be real here. Is it really worth it to drive an extra hour or 2 just to avoid paying 9 dollars. I would say no. It’s not like I would walk 10 miles rather than paying 2.50 to take a bus or a couple dollars on gas.
AUDIT THE MTA ------ >
Vote her out
Staten Islanders, who still don’t have direct rail access to the other boroughs, already pay good $$ to drive into Manhattan.
This is crazy! We already pay an arm and leg for all the tolls. When the Verrazano was built, It was said the tolls would stop and look at the price now. It's insane. Where is the money going?????
it's going to the mta board's 'overtime' pay. once people stopped paying for the bus and subway, they needed to find a new way to steal money.

I think this is the biggest concern people have. The MTA wastes money. If they spent money well ppl may have been less opposed.
MTA is another seriously corrupt NYC organization and 100% should be investigated for misuse of tax payer money and other fraud like giving out favor contracts for kick backs etc.
How come the MTA isn’t free like Luxembourg 🇱🇺? We already pay about 68%-75% in taxes

The governess is really out of touch with the real working people.
she wants to push more people in to the unsafe subways
She just gave her Jewish people 100 sumthing million dollars just because.
Yet too many personal vehicles driving into the city from everywhere
So the CEO is telling S.Island "we robbing u but it's ok"😂😂
She wants to take more money from you and your family. She will never care about your health.
Sacrificing others to satisfy others.
Everyone is concerned but the MTA and Kathy Hochul. It won’t be long before they add a 50 cent toll on all the city’s parkways.

All that money going to someone pockets, let’s be honest
Vote her out people

You can’t. Illegal immigrants could vote in state elections, and they over crowd law abiding citizens.
I'll never go to a restaurant in the city ever again !

Is a joke Staten Island plp now gotta waste even more money. And Verrazano will definitely be more busy
Liberals love to bring up statistics 😂

NYC, you got who you voted for !! BooHoo !!
Problem is that staten island votes republican. They aren't represented by their government.
Staten Island didn't vote for this ....😂
Funny how all this for the environment, but zero dollars goes towards the environment
This is happening to alleviate traffic congestion in the designated zone of the narrow, densely populated borough of Manhattan.
Why cry now? Cameras are already up. This is just for show...
Hochul has to go

@@Atrail_Mckinley4786 Exactly what would keep them from being able to board/ride a train/bus, but allows them to board/drive a car?
