NEW YORK (PIX11) — After the list of those eligible to be exempt from New York City’s congestion pricing was released, the MTA issued clarifications on the exemptions.
The MTA is limiting the amount of exemptions to the following:
The MTA said that school buses contracted with the city’s Department of Education, no matter if they are serving public or independent schools, will be exempt. Buses that provide scheduled commuter services open to the public will also be exempt from congestion pricing.
New York City and the MTA also collaborated to determine which of the city’s vehicles fall under the category of “specialized government vehicles.” According to the MTA, these vehicles are “those that are critical to perform public work in the congestion zone—which comprise well under half of the city’s non-emergency fleet.”
