紐約市即將成爲美國首個實施擁堵收費的城市，從週日開始，司機在進入曼哈頓中央商業區時將面臨新的通行費。這項開創性的舉措旨在解決城市擁堵併爲公共交通改善提供資金。
Under the plan championed by Gov. Kathy Hochul, passenger vehicles with E-ZPass will pay $9 during peak hours (5 a.m. to 9 p.m. weekdays, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. weekends) to enter Manhattan south of Central Park. Non-E-ZPass users will pay $13.50. Overnight rates drop to $2.25 and $3.30 respectively, reported Associated Press.
