NEW YORK (PIX11) – The start of congestion pricing in New York City is now under a month away.
The MTA’s congestion pricing plan is set to start on June 30.
Cars and SUVs entering Manhattan below 60th Street will be charged a $15 toll once a day between 5 a.m. and 9 p.m. on weekdays and between 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on weekends. Trucks and buses could be charged between $24 to $36, depending on their size.
People who make less than $50,000 a year and travel frequently into the congestion pricing zone can apply for a discount on the peak toll. Emergency vehicles, school buses, and commuting buses are exempt from congestion pricing, according to the MTA.
To learn more about eligibility for discounts and exemptions and how to apply, visit the MTA website.
