Hochul had put the plan on "pause" in June just before the originally proposed toll of $15 was set to take effect.

Kathy Hochul has revived a controversial congestion pricing plan for drivers entering Manhattan at 60th Street and below by knocking $6 off the $15 toll she rejected in June. The new $9 toll would need to be approved by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority Board at a meeting next week.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul today announced she is moving forward with a plan to turn on the nation’s first congestion pricing program. The program will reduce health-harming pollution from vehicle congestion, speed up commutes across the city and fund essential upgrades and repairs for the region’s transit system.
