“Lawmakers say the money will be spent to fix the MTA”
Wait! They can use the Amazon tax breaks to fix the MTA now!
60th Street is below the Bronx, right? Otherwise, you know who would need a raise. But otherwise, yeah, it’s all good. Twelve years to live and all.
So the street itself is the boundary, right? If you're going west, just don't turn left, and if you're going east, don't turn right, correct?
The best way to fit the Manhattan congestion problem is just dont go there.
“How will they collect the fees and how will they enforce it?”
That was my question - and it would seem to be a pretty obvious one for any reporter to address.
As an aside, I used to use the Willis Avenue Bridge to get on and off Manhattan without paying a toll - that’s only useful if you’re going East (or North) from the island (or at least it was), but I really hated shelling out anything to those bloodsuckers.
Oh, boy. THAT I hadn't heard. Definitely buying the bags online. Or buying my groceries in Pennsy.
Plastic bags in my neck of the woods are harder to recycle.
Wow makes me sad for what used to be NYC, glad I got out of there to a free state in the late 90s. Its nothing more than a tax slavery state now.
How about a few toll booths on the LIE and the SSP? That should take care of raising money.
Does anyone know? If I pay the toll on GWB, lincoln or Holland tunnel, do I still have to pay the $11.50?
Same way they now collect tolls on the Mass Pike.....sensors and cameras over the highway.
NY's plastic bag ban: How will it work? When does it take effect?
There’s a discount for those living in the area. They apply online.
I never understood how that stood up under the “full faith and credit” clause.
they scan your plate when you cross the bridge or the tunnel
Wonder how much all them new in and out of the city toll booths will cost...better charge pedestrians too...
