    Yeah your last point is correct, which is why having a congestion price that just makes it harder to drive with no increase in transit is stupid. Luckily that’s not the case here, the congestion pricing is directly tied to expanding transit options for workers to get into the city.

      Yeah, there’s the IBX rail project which should help a lot with transit in the outer boroughs. Also the Q line expansion, which should help add more transit capacity to East Harlem. And there’s a lot more that could be done.
