London and Stockholm already implemented congestion pricing with no significant increase in prices for goods and services.
Reduction in traffic will expedite travel times for delivery of goods. This decreases costs like fuel and labor driven by traffic delays
This, those pages are straight propaganda.....It's been 10 days in the middle of winter and people are making definitive conclusions about whether or not this shyt is good or bad in the long haul

EarthCam Live: Times Square in 4K
EarthCam takes you on a virtual tour of the most visited spot in New York City: Times Square! Our exclusive webcams feature aerial views of the action!Here a...www.youtube.com
This a 24/7 live stream of Times Square
You could see there’s generally less car traffic than usual…at any point in the day
I counted 10 cars at 8:23 pm ..in the middle of largest coty in the U.S. is crazy.. damn.
So is $9 a day or $9 everytime you enter below 60th street?
The 1st seems abhorrent but it's working to stop traffic.
The 2nd seems reasonable and still have intended effects.

Hopefully Trump gets rid of this.
Either way that's it with me and the Democratic Party.

in what you read, who absorbed the travel expense ? Did the supplier eat it? Or the business?
Someone has to raise price of their service ? And if so, what company or business here will do the same
NJ Transit from Newark Penn to NY Penn seem pretty normal to me...I wonder if those people are taking the PATH

Living in New York, this is a beautiful thing
People driving into the city for work is ridiculous, and if they don't want to work those jobs any more then they can go to people who actually live in the city.
People who were driving in to go shop at Bloomingdales will not be deterred by the increase

Is congestion pricing working? Well, this stretch on Clinton Street in Brooklyn is usually filled with traffic in the morning rush. But not today.

This morning around 10am I decided to see how congestion pricing affected local bus Q32 that runs from Jax Hts to city. (At a time I would never imagine taking it w/o CP.) Bus very popular w/seniors who avoid stairs & subway.
Verdict: noticeably FASTER traffic toward Manhattan

My favorite data point in this argument. If fewer people go to MAnhattan after this, this congestion tax is an abject failure. It’s meant to move people to public transit, which is in dire straits and can’t take the volume. The much likelier outcome is people don’t go to NYC.

NYC bus riders have been paying a massive hidden cost long before congestion pricing. We ignore them. Let’s break down how much time—and money—they lose every year due to slow car traffic. We’ll ignore health costs (asthma) and the lost time for car drivers.
