New York City congestion pricing, the first-in-the-nation tolling program​, got underway Sunday with no major issues, the MTA said.

New York City kicked off the first congestion pricing program in the US, part of an effort to reduce the number of vehicles in the world’s most traffic-clogged urban area while raising money for transit infrastructure.

While not likely to face its first stringent test until Monday morning rush hour, New York City's congestion pricing plan for drivers kicked off at midnight Sunday. Transportation leaders declare success amid pushback.
