You know congestion pricing has worked just as advertised, when even @politico can't find some controversy to concoct.

And yes, e.g. "the New York City Economic Development Corp. found foot traffic inside the central business district was up 4.8 percent compared to only 1 percent for business districts elsewhere in the city."¹

Congestion pricing was supposed to be a political red light for Gov. Kathy Hochul.

The controversial, first-in-the-nation Manhattan toll program began nearly a year ago after the governor’s politically strategic decision to hold off on it months before crucial midterm elections
