What if pedestrians could feel the benefits of congestion pricing as much as drivers have been feeling them already? How could the City make that happen? @saraklind.bsky.social answered these questions and more in All Things Considered @wnyc.org Listen now: www.wnyc.org/story/ways-t...

Well, they finally started charging a toll on the Queensboro Bridge !! gothamist.com/news/frustra...

The sudden car-lightness of Manhattan makes the City Council’s destruction of outdoor dining even more ridiculous & ill-timed than it already was

"Consider the bollard, the humble pawn of the urban landscape. In a world where vehicular physics have escalated, and mass homicide has become all too common, it only makes sense to better protect our sidewalks and streets."

I'm supposed to believe this thing won't hit me in a crosswalk

Great to see USDOT funding secure bike storage and e-bike charging in NJ and MN. Congrats to @shabazzstuart.bsky.social and his team at Oonee. www.linkedin.com/posts/shabaz...

Because there's not enough trouble on the roads, we need stupid robot cars.

When the lemmings cite this as "proof" be sure to remind them 1) it's an editorial, and 2) it's content is quite debatable. #CongestionPricing @TransAlt @RidersAlliance @NYC_SafeStreets nypost.com/2025/01/14/o...

When NYC started congestion pricing last week, we knew the local mainstream press would be out talking to drivers who were against the toll. So we went out and heard from some people who weren’t driving, including advocates who fought for this historic program. thewaroncars.org/2025/01/14/1...

this is incredible stuff. most state DOTs would spend tens of billions on highway expansions to try and see numbers like this (that wouldn’t even pan out anyway thanks to induced demand lol)

Boom! 1st week is a success! www.nytimes.com/2025/01/13/n...

Here are some photos of drivers looking annoyed as they enter the congestion zone. www.curbed.com/article/cong...

NJ Transit has a Twitter account for North Jersey buses that used to post multiple times a day about buses to the Port Authority bus tunnel running late due to heavy traffic in the Lincoln Tunnel. Not a single post about traffic last week since congestion pricing started.

Compare how many lines/words the DailyNews devoted to the victim and family with how little #StatenIsland Advance did. SILive editors are likely wondering how soon they can run an OpEd against speed cameras & #CongestionPricing. www.silive.com/crime-safety...
