Editor's Notes

  1. In the citywide discussion of Mayor Bloomberg’s sustainability plan for 2030, there is no more heated issue than the Mayor’s proposal for congestion pricing. This document presents key information about the proposal and how it would affect New York City residents, especially those living outside Manhattan. The objective is to help New Yorkers understand the facts and make smart decisions about whether they think the Mayor’s plan is good for themselves and good for the city.
