Just over a week after congestion pricing launched on Jan. 5, the MTA has yet to say how much money has been reaped from the controversial tolling program’s early days.
During a briefing at the MTA’s Lower Manhattan headquarters on Monday, MTA officials said they are still sorting through data and remained more focused on the program’s impact on traffic congestion. So far, the agency’s data shows an overall 7.51% reduction in traffic within the Congestion Relief Zone (CRZ), south of and including 60th Street in Manhattan, compared to the same period last year.
