New York Congestion Pricing

[steverob]

But what results! The recent half-season/product-test/advert of Jet Lag The Game was filmed in New York this year and the Manhattan streets looked so much nicer than when I last visited, without the jams and with so many more people on them.

As you say, it's only the truly evidence-denying who can oppose congestion charging in general now, surely?

Hey, a fellow Jet Lag fan!

I was in New York at the start of the month and did quite a bit of cycling, but admittedly most of it was either on closed roads (Five Boro Bike Tour) or in Central Park or on the Hudson Valley Greenway, so I didn't really encounter much traffic. The only time I rode on-road for any great length of time was in getting to the start of the FBBT, which I did by doing the length of the 7th Avenue cyclelane, but that was at about 6am, so it's probably not a good comparison for anything!
