New York City’s congestion charge is back and is now slated to take effect on January 5. Prices have been slashed and the daytime rate for cars will be $9 instead of $15. Officials believe the fee will reduce traffic,

New York said Thursday it will revive a controversial scheme to charge drivers entering parts of the city, a first in the United States, putting local authorities on a collision course with President-elect Donald Trump.

New York City transit officials are set to vote Monday on a revised toll program that would charge most motorists $9 to drive into large sections of Manhattan starting in January, with the fee set to increase to $15 by 2031.
