52% : Despite promises to improve public transportation, much of the funding from congestion pricing is slated for long-term projects, leaving the immediate concerns of the city's residents unmet.
49% : While proponents argue that tolls will fund much-needed improvements to public transportation, the reality is that many New Yorkers will find it harder to make ends meet as the costs of living continue to rise.
