New York City is set to implement a first-in-the-nation congestion pricing policy, charging vehicles $15 and up to drive in Manhattan below 60th Street. The move, aimed at reducing traffic and pollution, has sparked a debate across neighboring states. Randy Mastro is representing New Jersey in a lawsuit to stop the policy, citing concerns over its impact. However, there are suggestions that the dispute could be settled by using some of the tolling revenue to improve mass transit from New Jersey into New York's Central Business District. Despite the controversy, the MTA CEO remains confident that the New Jersey lawsuit will not derail the plan. Meanwhile, concerns have been raised about the lack of representation for Rockland County on the MTA Board, which could affect the policy's implementation.
