6 What are NYC s traffic and transportation problems? 1. Traffic Gridlock (CBD 8 am - 6 pm average: 9 mph) 2. Underfinanced Transit System (aging buses & subways) 3. Toll Imbalance (inefficient & unfair) 4. Tailpipe Pollution (problem largely solved) Charles Komanoff Nurture Nature Foundation New York 6

7 What was Mayor Bloomberg s Congestion Pricing Proposal? Private autos entering Manhattan CBD pay $8.00 (round-trip). Rebates for tolls on upstream bridges and tunnels. Large trucks pay extra. All tolls are charged only 12 x 5 (6am-6pm, Mon-Fri). Taxicabs pay surcharge averaging $0.25 instead of entry fee. MTA bridge tolls remain. Charles Komanoff Nurture Nature Foundation New York 7

8 A Comparison Bloomberg : Summary Vision Environmental Proponent Billionaire Mayor Features $8.00 round-trip, 12 x 5 Small taxi surcharge MTA bridges unchanged Results CBD Speed gain: 11% Net revenue: $520M/year Manhattan pays: 13% of total MV share to CBD: 17% (now 19%) Charles Komanoff Nurture Nature Foundation New York 8

9 What is the Move New York Toll-Rebalancing Proposal? Private autos entering Manhattan CBD pay $10.66 (round-trip) same as MTA tunnels. No rebates. Large trucks pay extra, but only once per day. Taxicabs pay congestion-based surcharge averaging $1.25 per trip instead of entry fee. All tolls are charged 24 x 7 (every hour of year). Reduce round-trip toll on all major MTA bridges by $5.00 (for minor MTA bridges: $2.00 off). Charles Komanoff Nurture Nature Foundation New York 9
