The Metropolitan Transportation Authority approved a revised congestion pricing plan for Manhattan that President-elect Donald Trump has threatened to terminate once he takes office.
大都会运输管理局批准了一项修订后的曼哈顿拥堵收费计划,特朗普概念当选总统后威胁要终止该计划。
The board of the MTA, which runs the city's transit system and is implementing the new toll, voted Monday to begin the program. It will charge E-ZPass motorists entering south of Manhattan's 60th Street $9 during peak hours, which is from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on weekdays, with E-ZPass trucks paying $14.40 during those hours. Vehicles without an E-ZPass would pay more.
纽约市交通局董事会已投票通过了实施新通行费的计划,该局负责运营该市的交通系统。该计划将对在曼哈顿60街以南进入的E-ZPass车辆在高峰时段收取9美元的通行费,即工作日的上午9点至晚上9点,E-ZPass货车在这些时段将支付14.40美元。没有E-ZPass的车辆将支付更高费用。
Drivers already paying tolls on the Lincoln, Holland, Queens-Midtown or Brooklyn-Battery tunnels will receive discounts during peak times to help lower the new fee. Fares will also be significantly cheaper when driving overnight with E-ZPass passenger cars paying $2.25 and trucks paying $3.60. Under the new plan, taxi passengers would pay $0.75 per trip, while customers riding in a for-hire vehicle such as Uber and Lyft would pay $1.50.
已在林肯、荷兰、皇后区中城或布鲁克林-电池隧道支付过通行费的司机在高峰时段将获得折扣,以帮助降低新费用。在夜间行驶时,搭载E-ZPass乘用汽车的乘客将支付2.25美元,货车支付3.60美元。根据新计划,出租车乘客每次行程将支付0.75美元,而搭乘优步和Lyft等网约车的客户将支付1.50美元。
