New Jersey To Receive Congestion Pricing Money

The MTA announced that New Jersey will get some of the toll revenue from its congestion pricing plan.

It's unclear how much money that will be, but it could be millions of dollars based on the current revenue sharing model. New Jersey has filed a lawsuit to block congestion pricing, with Governor Murphy arguing that drivers from his state would have to pay twice after initially paying to cross the Hudson River.

Congestion pricing is scheduled to go into effect in June and a judge has promised a decision on New Jersey's lawsuit before drivers start paying the $15 toll to travel south of 60th Street.
