Buses driving the way toward congestion pricing

367 more buses are closer to hitting the streets after the mayor's congestion pricing plan was offered $354 million from the federal government. If Mayor Michael Bloomberg can sell his plan to the legislature and a congestion pricing commission, the buses and money roll out. The MTA will send it's bus plan to Albany in October. The buses, which include 12 new routes, are supposed to entince drivers from their cars. "The mta can go to Albany and go to the commission and make the case. NY is in the same position as London. You have to have certan things in place to have congestion pricing," said MTA spokesman Ernest Tollerson.
