💨 Abstract

The city of New York and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority have requested a U.S. judge to block the Trump administration from hindering Manhattan's congestion pricing program. The program, launched in January, charges most passenger vehicles a $9 toll to enter Manhattan south of 60th Street, aiming to reduce congestion and fund mass transit improvements. The administration has threatened to withhold federal approvals for other projects and funding.
