Ah got it, you're talking specifically about the Hudson. Turns out the new tunnels won't be finished until 2035.
Still, congestion pricing seems like the best solution even for right now. Reducing car traffic underneath the Hudson means buses can run faster and we can add more of them, since that's literally the only short-term solution.
Oh I agree! We need all these things, we can’t have them, but let’s do what we can to make things better. Driving south of midtown Manhattan for me is a luxury and paying the cost will clearly show how it’s wasteful and costly to the neighborhoods I’m driving through. I probably just won’t do it.
