Repeals congestion pricing
This bill repeals New York City's congestion pricing program, which would have charged drivers a toll for entering Manhattan's central business district. It removes all legal provisions establishing the tolling program from the Vehicle and Traffic Law and related statutes, including the specific "central business district tolling program" reference. The repeal directly affects drivers who would have been required to pay the toll when entering the designated area. The key mechanism is the complete removal of the legal framework enabling the toll, ending the requirement for this specific fee. This is a straightforward policy change eliminating the congestion pricing mandate.
