Governor Hochul announces congestion pricing is funding air quality improvements at Hunts Point Market

New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced on Wednesday, April 1, that the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) and New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) reached a major congestion pricing-funded milestone to improve air quality in the Bronx.

The milestone was reached thanks in large part to 20 diesel-powered transport refrigeration units (TRUs) at the Hunts Point Produce Market being replaced with clean diesel or hybrid models.
