Congestion pricing will start in New York City in January with a $9 toll, Gov. Kathy Hochul announced Thursday.  Hochul wants to restart the program at a reduced rate, which is why it's being lowered from $15 for most daytime trips into Manhattan's Congestion Relief Zone.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is resurrecting a toll on people driving into the busiest parts of Manhattan but at a lower cost, a move her allies hope will allow the nation’s first system of congestion pricing to begin operating before President-elect Donald Trump is inaugurated.

On Thursday, Governor Hochul announced a new, reduced toll to get into Manhattan. The incoming president is not a fan.
