Abstrakt: WITH congestion pricing dead (for now), New York City is left with drivers still stuck in traffic and transit riders packed like sardines. How else can we ease traffic jams and provide decent and affordable bus and subway service? Both the state and the city have work to do. Gov. David Paterson took the first step yesterday by creating a panel to identify new ways to pay for mass transit. With the projected income from congestion pricing gone, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority faces a $17.5 billion deficit in its proposed $29.5 billion five-year capital program. That's more hole than program. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
