New York is set to become the first city in the U.S. to implement a congestion charge starting in January.

The plan is to charge $9 for passenger cars entering Manhattan's central business district.

The primary goal is to reduce traffic congestion, but it will also generate revenue for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, which runs Metro-North Railroad in Connecticut.

Gov. Ned Lamont has been only mildly supportive of congestion pricing, but adds: “it’s a good thing for all if more people took the train.”
