Nick, I didn't give all nine points of the plan to Azi. There is a far better way to pay for it. Stay tuned.
Don't be so focused on congestion pricing as to exclude fairer more profitable alternatives. That what the Commission is for. LOL.
Congestion pricing is estimated to produce 300-400 million per annum. As we now know, that is based upon several presumptions and guestimates which may well prove untrue. To collect that kind of revenue, we will probably see a doubling of the fee. At what point can we accept that this will just be a punitive charge demonizing that segment of the population that chooses or needs to commute by auto?
Further, given commitments to improve mass transit, has anyone seen a list of them all and what they would actually cost? I haven't and surely doubt that the 3-400 million will get the job done.
Keep your mind open. There are other better and fairer options.
