I don’t see anything in your comment that makes me think congestion toll is a bad idea. NYC infrastructure can’t maintain increased traffic and we shouldn’t build out to accommodate it. If you need to get into manhattan, just use public transportation. The perception, as far as I can tell, comes from a bunch of car brains who think they should be able to drive wherever they want and be 100% accommodated without taking one second to think about the consequences of car-centric infrastructure. Spending our time and energy accommodating them is a net negative to our community. Edit: it seems like you’re doing your calculations based on the idea that increased access via car leads to increased sales. The data actually shows the opposite: The more walkable the area is, the more sales at storefronts. Locations that shutdown lanes of traffic to increase walkability or increase bike traffic see a massive jump in revenue.
