🚨BREAKING🚨 NEW JERSEY’S ATTEMPT TO DERAIL CONGESTION PRICING FAILS, PROGRAM TO GO INTO EFFECT THIS SUNDAY 🎉

get ready for cleaner air, mass transit improvements, and less traffic!
Statement from MTA Chair and CEO Lieber on Central Business District Tolling Court Decision "We're gratified that on virtually every issue, Judge Gordon agreed with the New York federal court and rejected New Jersey's claim that the Environmental Assessment approved 18 months ago was deficient. Most important, the decision does not interfere with the program's scheduled implementation this coming Sunday, January 5. On the two remaining issues where the Judge requested that the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) provide additional data - information that was not yet before the Court in this proceeding - we're confident that the subsequent Federal actions, including the approval of the revised, reduced toll rates, did put those issues to rest." ####
