On January 5th, congestion fees will be levied in the lower and middle areas of Manhattan Island in New York City, USA. New York became the first city in the United States to implement congestion fees. According to the collection plan, vehicles only need to pay congestion fees once a day when entering the “congestion relief zone” to enter and exit the area multiple times. The payment amount depends on whether the vehicle enters the relief zone during peak traffic hours, the type of vehicle, and the method of congestion fee payment. Passengers pay congestion fees for New York City taxis and ride hailing services that enter, exit, pass through, or travel within the ‘congestion relief zone’.
