If Mayor Eric Adams hoped to thwart driving into lower Manhattan, he has met his match in the monied people of the Hamptons.
“We see a new big streetlight-looking thing that goes up and across the road on Central Park West and 60th Street with sensors,” Jockers says. “We shake our fist at it.” Beginning in June, those sensors will automatically charge motorists as New York City’s Central Business District Tolling Program introduces a congestion-pricing program that will require passenger vehicles, trucks, motorcycles, taxis, and other for-hire vehicles to pay a toll upon entering the area below 60th Street.
” One woman who splits her time between her Gramercy Park apartment and Amagansett house has her “status greens” to consider in her commute. “I wish I could drive out there Memorial Day and stay until Labor Day, but this ain’t 2020 anymore,” she says. “I really can’t bring all my CSA produce back into town on The Jitney—I’d need to buy a second seat.” Even those who live above 59th Street and can avoid the fee by crossing the Throgs Neck or Robert F. Kennedy bridges have another gripe.
