Cuomo on Congestion Pricing: We Should Study It First, People Don’t Need Another Obstacle Right Now
‘I question whether it was the right time to implement that right now, when New York City has all these problems’
EXCERPT:
CUOMO: "The focus on congestion pricing, I passed it about six years ago, I questioned whether was the right time to implement it right now, when New York City, as all these problems. We’re trying to get people back, we only have 60% of the people in the offices. Do you want to give them another obstacle and say, 'And by the way, now you have to pay a higher toll,' and they're going to use that to say, 'Forget it, I’ll just stay home and do remote work?' I said we should study it first. But job one here is going to be manage the city, make it work.”
