Congestion pricing: Voters support Hochul’s pause, but disapprove of governor, in new poll

By Ben Brachfeld Posted on June 20, 2024

New York voters are nearly twice as likely to support Gov. Kathy Hochul’s decision to pause congestion pricing as to oppose it, but tend to disapprove of her leadership more generally, according to a new statewide poll from Siena College.

The poll found that 45% of registered voters said they approved of the governor’s move to pause the toll, which was scheduled to go into effect on June 30 and would charge most motorists $15 to enter lower Manhattan, with proceeds funding mass transit improvements. That’s nearly twice the 23% of respondents who said they opposed the move, while 33% said they were somewhere in the middle or had no opinion.
