New York City’s congestion pricing plan—the first in the U.S.—has been in place since 2024, charging most vehicles $9 to enter Manhattan below 60th Street. The results so far are striking: around 70,000 fewer cars enter daily, commute times through the Holland and Lincoln Tunnels are down nearly 50%, and Midtown buses are moving up to 20% faster. Subway ridership has rebounded to pre-pandemic highs, and even the Bronx has seen travel delays drop. But the plan has stirred up major political and legal battles, with challenges from the federal government, trucking companies, and New Jersey officials. Globally, the idea draws from London, Stockholm, and Singapore, where pricing traffic reshaped urban mobility. Whether New York’s version becomes a model for other U.S. cities—or a cautionary tale—depends on what happens next in the courts, and how well the MTA reinvests revenues into transit improvements.
