"MTA Announces New Jersey's Share of NYC Congestion Pricing Revenue"
TL;DR Summary
New Jersey will receive a share of the money generated by Manhattan's congestion pricing plan, with millions of dollars expected for key counties like Bergen and Hudson. The plan, set to take effect in mid-June, will charge cars $15 and trucks up to $36 to enter Manhattan below 61st Street. Despite objections and a federal lawsuit from New Jersey, the MTA board has approved the plan, which aims to contribute millions of dollars to the transit system. Specifics on New Jersey's share and exemptions for certain vehicles are still pending, and legal challenges could delay the implementation.
