Relates to establishing a temporary toll holiday for use of the thruway

This bill establishes a temporary toll holiday for the New York State Thruway, suspending all toll fees for drivers from June 1, 2024, through August 31, 2024. To offset the lost revenue, the state comptroller is required to transfer funds from the general fund to the Thruway Authority by November 1, 2024, ensuring the agency can still cover its expenses and obligations during the holiday period. The Thruway Authority is authorized to create any necessary emergency rules to implement these changes, and the legislation takes effect immediately.
