“That a niche broadband option gets congestion normally wouldn’t be that big of a deal; the problem is Trump Republicans have hijacked and retooled the $42.5 billion infrastructure bill broadband grant program to throw billions of dollars — and millions of new customers — at Musk’s Starlink as a personal favor to one of the U.S. president’s biggest donors.”

Weeknote 2026.28
Walked the perimeter of Manhattan. In the links: Congestion pricing, the gift that keeps on giving, remembering AOL IM, and Americans are socializing less.

I think the #LIRR strike was basically like undoing #CongestionPricing. My kids' bus has returned to taking 1.5 hours each way rather than 45-60mins.
Now that the strike is over, let's hope traffic returns to normal. It would be a great time to raise the congestion pricing toll to its originally planned level, though. #NYC #MTA #NYS

It's frustrating that NY Governor #KathyHochul hasn't bothered to raise the #CongestionPricing toll cost (which was much lower than initially intended) since its inception, despite being wildly successful by all measures.
At least Trump's doing his part though, adding congestion pricing tolls through the entire country (via gas price hikes). #AccidentallyTheEcoPresident
[edit: correction, make that the entire world.]

This fantastic list (not an article) from the MTA was cited in the article about our success with #CongestionPricing #NYC.
$6B from the plan is already in use, with $15B total expected (by the end of this year? not clear).

Modeled against Berlin:
"We find that congestion toll revenue in a single metropolitan area can fully compensate for regional fuel tax losses while generating substantial welfare gains. The policy reduces travel delays by 1.16 million hours and cuts CO2 emissions by over 42,000 tonnes annually. Distributional analysis reveals that progressive revenue recycling targeting middle- and low-income residents and outer boroughs is essential for public acceptability. Our findings suggest that the fuel tax revenue crisis provides both fiscal necessity and political justification for implementing this economically superior but historically difficult policy."
Not fully open access but there's enough teasing by information ransomer Elsevier to convey the gist.
