Gov. Hochul claims congestion pricing would cause NYC pizza costs to rise
During a news conference Thursday, Hochul claimed pizzerias would pass along the cost of the tolls to hungry New Yorkers in search of a cheap bite.
“Everything from the cost of a piece of pizza is going to go up because there’ll be charges imposed that’ll be passed onto consumers. This moment in time is not the right time to put that on the backs of New Yorkers,” Hochul said., which would have charged drivers a $15 daytime fee to enter Manhattan below 60th Street. The fees were supposed to bankroll, but flip-flopped last week and ordered the program be put on pause indefinitely.
