New York City's congestion pricing proposal lives another day after it's Monday deadline, apparently, according to the governor's office. The Associated Press this morning reports the governor's office as saying that there is a new tentative proposal to pitch to state legislators. However, the governor's office did not immediately provide details. Meanwhile, the word coming from the city sounds more somber. A news release from New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's office this morning would only note that the state Assembly failed to vote on the city proposal before the deadline. The release went on to take a slap at the Assembly by saying: "This Administration will continue to work with the more than 140 civic, business, environmental and labor organizations that support our plan to make progress, and we will continue to press for real solutions, not interminable study groups whose only real purpose is to avoid accountability and results." Which is it? Potential paying commuters want to know.
