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.

Lilia is an amazing person! I felt like there was a "wall" between my husband and me, even though everything had been wonderful before. After the consultation and the harmonization ritual, everything changed: we started talking again, laughing, and planning for the future. Even the children noticed how warm and calm it was at home. Thank you so much! I'm writing her number (380638055486, Viber, WhatsApp). +19297133433
Sometimes there comes a time when the usual methods no longer work. A loved one becomes a stranger, relationships crumble or die out, luck fades, and anxiety and fatigue accumulate within. Talking, waiting, and trying to change things yield no results. In such situations, it is important to understand why exactly this is happening. Often, the cause is hidden deeper than it seems: accumulated negativity, energetic influence, or internal imbalance can subtly affect life and hinder progress. People seek help when: - A loved one has left or has cooled towards the relationship. - The same problems constantly recur in their personal life. - A feeling of loneliness, anxiety, and uncertainty appears. - Financial and life opportunities seem to pass them by. - They want to understand what lies ahead and what the right decision will be. What kind of help is provided: - Work with the love sphere - restoring relationships, returning a loved one, harmonizing feelings. - Energy cleansing - removing the evil eye, damage, and other people's negative influence, restoring balance. Fortune telling and situational analysis – Tarot card readings, analysis of the past and possible future events. Support during difficult times – when you lack strength and confidence. Attracting good luck – working with money and life flows. Each situation is considered individually, without cookie-cutter solutions or empty promises. The main goal is to find the cause of what is happening and help change the situation for the better. Help is available in person and remotely. Complete confidentiality. If life has entered a difficult period and it seems like everything is going in circles, sometimes it is a timely request for support that helps put everything in its place.

I have three children. When my husband left, I was left alone with them. He went to a young girl, said he was tired. Lilya helped me understand what was happening. She explained that there is energy manipulation, and suggested a ritual. Honestly, I did not know what to expect. But there was a result - after 2 weeks he began to communicate with the eldest son, then he came to the birthday of the youngest ... and stayed. Now we go to a family psychologist, he regrets what happened. I know that without Lily's help we would not be together.

I turned to the clairvoyant Emelie for diagnostics, and she immediately saw the cause of my problems - it turned out that I had been cursed by my man's mistress. I didn't even expect that it would manifest itself so accurately, but a lot coincided with what was happening in my life. Emelie helped to remove this curse, performed a ritual and explained what and how to do next. After her work, it became noticeably easier - both mentally and in relationships. She works calmly, without intimidation and unnecessary words, you can feel that she is a professional in her field. I am very grateful and can safely recommend her to those who are looking for real help. Her number: +380500147707 (Viber)
Zakhar gave me back the meaning of life and the belief that even from the darkest depths one can emerge into the light.
When my boyfriend left, I didn't know how to move on. I was left alone in New York, and I wasn't prepared for this at all. My heart was breaking with pain, and time was running out. The savings I'd accumulated in Florida were melting like dew in the sun, and I even considered leaving the US to be with my mother in Italy, where she'd lived for the past three years. It seemed all was lost. That's when I stumbled upon the contacts of the magician Zakhar. I was worried about whether he'd be able to see my situation remotely, but distance wasn't a problem for him. My very first conversation with Zakhar amazed me. He saw everything down to the last detail without asking anything. His calm and confidence gave me hope. He said he could help, and I grasped at that straw. Magic... I always thought it was something from movies, but Zakhar showed me that real magic is faith and the ability to channel energy. And a miracle happened! My beloved came back. He realized how much he needed me and that our breakup was a mistake. And then... then he proposed! It was like a dream come true. Today we are married, and every day I thank fate and, of course, Zakhar for our happiness with my beloved. We have a beautiful daughter. Our family is the most precious thing I have. Zakhar gave me back my meaning in life and the belief that even from the darkest depths, you can emerge into the light. I advise you not to despair and don't be shy about asking for help. Zakhar's magician's number is +380954248510. I communicated with him via WhatsApp.
