Transportation (Bridges)

S 2621 limits the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority by prohibiting it from charging trucks more than one toll per day when entering Manhattan's central business district. This bill directly affects commercial truck drivers and the authority's tolling operations. The key provision establishes a daily toll cap for trucks, ensuring they pay only once regardless of how many times they enter the district in a single day. The legislation does not change toll amounts or funding mechanisms, focusing solely on the frequency of truck toll charges.

This bill limits the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority's ability to charge trucks multiple tolls per day when entering New York City's central business district. Specifically, it prohibits charging trucks (as defined in Vehicle and Traffic Law §158) more than once daily for entry into the district. The law applies directly to truck drivers and commercial vehicles using the authority's bridges and tunnels. It does not restrict tolls for passenger vehicles or change the authority's broader power to set variable tolls for congestion management.
