CONGESTION pricing has caused severe tension on the east coast, with many saying it will not reduce congestion and harm locals.
Several New Jersey counties have engaged in a legal battle against New York City’s newly passed congestion pricing policy.
The policy has prices varying per type of vehicle entering Manhattan, though the average cost is $15 per car that enters the region.
Even some local celebrities have initiated law suits with the Big Apple, saying that instead of reducing congestion on major highways, it will increase congestion in surrounding neighborhoods.
New Jersey residents who travel into the city say that it will harm them, as there are no allowances for employees that have to travel daily into Manhattan.
