The hearings will be held in a hybrid format with the possibility of in-person participation, as well as virtual participation through the online platform Zoom and via conference call; A live broadcast of the meeting will be available on the MTA YouTube channel. As defined by the MTA's Reform and Traffic Mobility Act of 2019 (the "Act"), TVTA will establish a CBD Tolling Program and will collect tolls from vehicles entering the Manhattan Central Business District, as defined by law. as the area south of and inclusive of 60th Street, but does not include Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) Drive, New York State Route 9A (including the Battery Park Underpass), and any above-ground portion of the Hugh L. Carey Tunnel that connects with West Street. The program's goal is to reduce traffic congestion and generate revenue to fund $15 billion in improvements to subway, bus and commuter rail systems under the MTA's 2020-2024 capital plan and beyond. The Act establishes a Transport Mobility Review Board, which is tasked with preparing recommendations for a tariff schedule consistent with the parameters of the Act, including the amount of fees and any credits, discounts and/or exemptions. These recommendations were published on November 30, 2023. On December 6, 2023, the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority Board of Directors voted to implement the administrative process necessary to develop and approve the toll rate schedule. Accordingly, the public comment period is now open and a hybrid public hearing will be held to allow the TVTA Authority to receive feedback on the proposed fare schedule. The public comment period began on December 27, 2023 and will continue until March 11, 2024. The proposed travel tariff scheme can be found on the website:https://new.mta.info/document/129191. Below is a summary of the proposal: ■ Passenger vehicles and passenger vehicles with commercial license plates will be charged an E-ZPass entry fee into the CBD of $15 during peak periods, no more than once per day. ■ Trucks will be charged $24 or $36 during peak periods to enter the CBD via E-ZPass, depending on their size. ■ Buses providing transit or commuter services will be exempt from fares. Other buses will be charged an E-ZPass entry fee of $24 or $36 during peak periods, depending on their type. ■ Motorcycles will be charged half the corresponding passenger car toll, up to a maximum of once per day. ■ Tolls will only be charged to vehicles when entering the CBD, not while they remain in or leave the zone. ■ Peak period tolls will be charged at the busiest times of the day - from 5:00 to 21:00 on weekdays and from 9:00 to 21:00 on weekends. At night, fares will be 75% lower. ■ A tunnel credit toward the peak toll portion of the CBD will be provided to vehicles with E-ZPass entering the four toll gates that lead directly into the CBD: the Queens-Midtown, Hugh L. Carey, Holland and Lincoln tunnels. At night, when fares for travel in the Central District are already 75% lower than during the peak period, travel credits will not apply. ■ New York Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) taxis, green taxis and for-hire vehicles (FHVs) will be exempt from the system's daily vehicle fare. Instead, a per-trip fee will be added to each passenger fare paid for travel to, from, or within the CBD at a rate of $1.25 per trip for taxis, green taxis and FHVs, and $2.50 per trip for FHVs for trips carried out by the high-volume for-hire service (abbr.

I don't understand how Lilia felt it, but she gave me my family back. And more importantly, she gave me hope.
When I came to Lilya, I was in such a state that I couldn't even speak properly—there was a lump in my throat the whole time. My husband left, slamming the door, saying he was tired. I thought it was the end. Lilya gently took my hand and said, "You'll see his smile again next to you." And two weeks later, he really did come back. He sat down across from me and, his voice shaking, admitted that he missed me every minute. I don't understand how Lilya felt it, but she gave me back my family. And most importantly, she gave me hope. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
I turned to clairvoyant Lilia on a friend's recommendation when my relationship was about to fall apart. I didn't expect her words to have such a profound impact. After her consultation, I became calmer, learned to respond appropriately to many situations, and within just a couple of weeks, my husband and I began to grow closer. Now our home is warm and peaceful again. Thank you, Lilia, for your support! Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
I thank Lilia for her kindness, strength and ability to change lives.
I didn't believe that anyone could help us. My husband and I were on the verge of divorce, grievances had been accumulating for years. But after several meetings with Lilia, real miracles began. She didn't just listen - she deeply understood and showed where our problems were coming from. Thanks to her work with us and her incredible energy, it became easier to breathe in the house. The eternal negativity disappeared, irritation and mistrust went away. Now we are together, closer than ever. I thank Lilia for her kindness, strength and ability to change lives.

She saved me when I was on the edge. Lily gave me back my man, my love, my life.
I'm writing this review with tears in my eyes, because I still can't believe it all really happened. When he left, the ground fell out from under my feet. We were together for almost three years. He was everything to me: love, friend, support. But one day, he simply fell silent, distanced himself, became a stranger. And then – disappeared. Without explanation, without goodbyes. My soul screamed in pain, I didn't eat, didn't sleep, didn't live. No one could help. Not my friends, not a psychologist, not my prayers into my pillow at night. I accidentally saw Lilia online. The reviews, like mine now, seemed too magical to be true. But then, I was ready for anything. I wrote to her. And that's where my return to life began. From the first minutes of talking with Lilia, I felt that she knew. Not just guessed – it was as if she was experiencing my pain with me. She told me about the situation as if she had been there herself. She saw that he was being negatively influenced, and that his feelings hadn't disappeared—they were just blocked. Lilia performed a deep energy cleansing and said she would work with me and his energy field. I'll be honest: I was afraid, I doubted, I even thought about giving up. But I continued to follow her instructions. And 12 days later, he wrote. At first, he was reserved. Then he admitted that all this time he had felt something pulling him back. That I was constantly in his thoughts. And a week later, he was standing at my door. With the words: "You couldn't get out of my head. I'm sorry. I want everything back." I sobbed. I hugged him and couldn't believe it wasn't a dream. If it weren't for Lilia, this miracle wouldn't have happened. I know for sure: her gift is real. Her energy, her strength, her words—they are real. She didn't just help me bring back my loved one; she pulled me out of the abyss in which I was perishing. Now we're back together. We're closer than we were before the breakup. He's different. I'm different. Stronger. More confident. More grateful. If you're in pain right now, like I was, don't stay silent, contact Lilia. Her help isn't just rituals. It's light, warmth, and power that truly change lives. Her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433 (regular call).
The help of the magician Alexander proved invaluable to me. One day, without realizing it, I encountered a serious problem. I spotted a scrap of fabric or woven knitting thread on my doorstep, resembling a crocheted doll. I didn't pay it much attention. Without looking closely, I instinctively kicked it and tossed it aside. Now I realize it was completely thoughtless. But nevertheless. Soon after, inexplicable and extremely unpleasant events began to occur in my life. In various areas. From minor everyday problems to serious difficulties at work and a general decline in health. I'd lose my keys, my car would stall at the most inopportune moment, and then a whole series of escalating misfortunes followed. And then there was constant fatigue and apathy. It was clear something was wrong, but what exactly wasn't obvious. Attempts to find a logical explanation for what was happening or to solve the problems using traditional methods were fruitless. Neither doctors nor psychologists had any significant impact on the situation. So, I didn't think twice when I came across Alexander's contact information. He was recommended to me as a clairvoyant with abilities—he'd gotten a friend's wife back quickly. So, I messaged Alexander on WhatsApp and arranged a consultation. During our conversation, he described with astonishing accuracy the incident with the lining on my doorstep that I'd kicked. I'd never told anyone about it and had completely forgotten about it. The puzzle fell into place instantly. The diagnosis of the curse was undeniable. So, I literally begged Alexander to take me on and cleanse me of this evil. Alexander agreed and said I'd need to perform several rituals and, as I recall, energy cleansings. Day after day, I literally felt this weight lift, this black cloud that had been hanging over me. Life began to improve. And surprisingly, it didn't just return to normal; it became much easier. I've started feeling more empowered and energized more often, things are going well at work, and my relationships with loved ones have improved. I'm incredibly grateful to Alexander. He saved me and gave me my life back. Don't hesitate to contact him if you need advice or help. Alexander's number is +380971792179.
