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.

Her love is the light that penetrated the darkness and made us happy again. Her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433
I was sitting on the train, tears streaming down my cheeks, my heart breaking. My boyfriend, the love of my life, had left. Not just left, but for his ex! I knew, I felt, that something was wrong. He couldn't have gone crazy so suddenly. And then a fellow passenger, an elderly, wise woman, carefully asked what had happened. I told her everything, and after listening, she quietly said it looked like a love spell. She recommended a powerful clairvoyant magician. According to her, he had helped more than one of her friends in even more difficult situations. I thought about it, but wrote down the phone number. Desperation pushed me to take this step. Using the phone number, I found many good reviews about Zakhar online. I messaged him on Viber and arranged a meeting. He was completely different from what I had imagined – calm, insightful, incredibly wise. I was shocked that I didn't have to tell him anything. Zakhar is such a powerful clairvoyant that he was able to tell me everything himself. My worst fears about a powerful love spell were only confirmed. Zakhar agreed to take the job. Within days, my boyfriend made contact, and his behavior began to change. He started calling, seeking meetings, and his gaze returned to its former, warm and loving expression. And then the incredible happened! My beloved came to me with a ring and proposed. I cried with happiness! Now we are married and live in mutual understanding. I am grateful to fate for that travel companion and, of course, for the magician Zakhar, who restored our happiness. He didn't just give me back my boyfriend; he gave me back my life! Zakhar's number is +380954248510
Molfar Andriy is amazing at creating. Chula from other people's words, but I myself confirmed it with someone. It is really great happiness that such people with guilt like Andriy exist. I will ruin my homeland if the person is at home. I know a lot of people at home and in other situations. You can solve people’s problems in the same way that they were caused, in a way that you can help in any way. It doesn’t matter to verify it. Write to me on WhatsApp at +380932169225 and ask for a consultation. And you will be happy.
My review of love fortune telling - everything came true down to the last detail!
Girls, I'm absolutely shocked! The reading was online, but it felt like she saw me in person. She told me everything accurately—both about the past and the future. She said my ex would come back, and he did! I recommend her to anyone looking for a genuine clairvoyant, not a charlatan. I'll leave my contact information: +16463779379.
If you don't see the point right now, if you cry at night and don't know how to live on - just read this.
If you don't see the point now, if you cry at night and don't know how to live on - just read this. Until recently, I had a family, children, a loved one... And then everything fell apart. I fell ill... in body and soul. I didn't sleep, I didn't eat, I was just slowly fading away. And then he left. Quietly. Without explanation. All that remained was emptiness and silence. And the children, who looked at me and didn't understand why Mom wasn't smiling anymore. I thought I wouldn't survive. But one day, I was given Lily's contact information, which helped. I called, almost in disbelief, simply out of hopelessness... And that was the beginning of my comeback. She didn't judge. She didn't promise miracles. She simply helped. Slowly, piece by piece, I began to put myself back together. Strength returned. I began to sleep. The fear went away. Then something happened that I no longer believed in. He came back. He said it was as if he had "seen the light." But even if I hadn't come back, I was already living again. I'm writing this for you, if you're feeling broken-hearted and empty-eyed right now. Please, don't give up. Help is out there. You're not alone. And you will definitely rise again. I don't know how, but it works for Lily, too. She truly has a gift, and I recommend it to you from the bottom of my heart. She's a God-given person. I'll leave my contact information for anyone who really needs help (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for a regular call).
