The MTA's $9 daytime congestion pricing tolls kicked in about a month ago for drivers heading into Manhattan below 60th street. The program aims to push commuters out of their cars and onto mass transit. But at the same time, the cost to ride the PATH transit lines between New Jersey and New York City went up by 25 cents.
As an added bonus, the Hoboken PATH station is now closed for track and station upgrades, with work expected to run through Feb. 25.
Clarelle DeGraffe, Director and General Manager of the PATH system for the Port Authority, joins Weekend Edition host David Furst to talk about the closure.
