The only thing that will get rid of gridlock in Manhattan is banning cars.

> The plan is called congestion pricing, and New York City is poised to become the first city in the United States to implement it.

Just... wow! In 2022!

Congrats to all New Yorkers though for finally getting this, hope the money will build loads of new public transport.

Would be nice if we totally paved ground level for cars and trash and built a promenade above.
