Murphy Fires off a Thank You Letter to Trump

 

Statement by Governor Murphy on the Federal Highway Administration’s Decision to Rescind Value Pricing Pilot Program (VPPP) Agreement Authorizing New York’s Congestion Pricing Program

“I want to thank President Trump and Secretary Duffy for their efforts to halt the current congestion pricing program in Manhattan’s Central Business District.

“While I have consistently expressed openness to a form of congestion pricing that meaningfully protects the environment and does not unfairly burden hardworking New Jersey commuters, the current program lines the MTA’s pockets at the expense of New Jerseyans.

“Although we have had a difference of opinion with our colleagues in New York on congestion pricing, we have always had a productive relationship with our neighbors across the Hudson. I look forward to continuing that spirit of partnership for the benefit of the entire Tri-State Area.”
