The PA (especially) and MTA bridges mostly service traffic passing through the city, so dinging them for a toll is called for. The local bridges serve mostly local drivers and businesses, on intracity routes. Since this is a single city that spans a number of waterways, people traveling within the city should NOT have to pay to cross the rivers. If someone in Manhattan wants to shop in Queens, or someone from queens wants to come into Manhattan, they should not have to pay for the prviledge. Owning a car in the city is expensive enough as it is.
Yes, tolls….and yes, it's time to push forward again with congestion pricing for NYC.
No way. One of the great features of New york city is free enterpriseand easy travel to and from this great town.
Tolls will send business away and increase the cost of goods sold in local stores
