Feds give another month to stop congestion toll
NEW YORK >> The Trump administration has given New York another month to cease its congestion toll after the state ignored a Sunday deadline to shut down the $9 fee for most drivers coming into the busiest part of Manhattan.
U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, in a Monday letter to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, said the state risks losing federal funding and approvals for certain projects from the Federal Highway Administration.
The missive gives New York officials another 30 days to stop collecting the toll — or at least explain why they’re not breaking the law by continuing with the program after the government revoked its federal approval in February.
