A statement from RPA President & CEO Tom Wright:

Congestion Pricing is essential to the health and well-being of the tri-state region. Today’s news—that the Federal Highway Administration sent a Letter of Legal Sufficiency to the MTA--is a great step for reducing congestion, improving the region’s environment and supporting transit. We applaud the Biden Administration, the MTA and Governor Hochul for advancing this transformative policy and look forward to implementing it in a way that benefits the entire region.
