Eliminates the congestion surcharge on medallion taxicab trips

This bill would remove the $2.75 congestion surcharge currently applied to trips taken in or to New York City's congestion zone by traditional medallion taxicabs. The legislation specifically targets for-hire vehicles that operate under existing taxi regulations, excluding ride-sharing services and other non-medallion vehicles from this change. By eliminating this fee, the bill aims to reduce the cost of taxi rides within the designated area, though it does not alter surcharges for other transportation types like pool vehicles or ride-hail apps.
