Public Hearings • Metropolitan Transportation Authority

Public hearings
The Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority ("TBTA"), doing business as MTA Bridges and Tunnels, will hold a Statewide Administrative Procedures Public Hearing (SAPA) on proposed changes to 21 New York State Code, Rules, and Regulations (NYCRR) Section 1021.2, concerning vehicle restrictions and the monitoring of weigh-as-you-go violations. The public hearing will examine the public use, benefits, purposes, and application of these regulatory changes. Residents will also be given the opportunity to comment.
Project Descriptions
TBTA proposes regulatory changes to address the following issues:
• Establishment of a Weigh-on-the-Move (WIM) violation monitoring system and establishment of a rate for the WIM violation monitoring system for exceeding weight limits;
• Changes to vertical clearance requirements on TBTA bridges and tunnels; and
• Fee for vehicles requiring new permits for special servicing of vehicles with excess dimensions and/or weight.
Responsibility for the Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) Bridge Weigh-As-You-Go (WAY) Pilot Project
The New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law (NYS VTL) was amended in 2025 to permit the use of WIM technology on the RFK Bridge to safely and effectively enforce truck weight restrictions and fine violators. The TBTA Board approved the project after a public hearing in October 2025. This amendment establishes that the vehicle owner's penalty for violating Section 385 VTL will be $650 per violation. Additional fines will also apply for late violations.
Changes in vertical clearances on bridges and tunnels
New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law §1621(c) requires that the permitted clearance on bridges and tunnels be one foot less than the measured clearance. The measured clearance height must be the minimum height of the bridge or structure when measured vertically from the roadway. The proposed changes to vehicle restrictions are intended to update §1021.2 of 21 NYCRR Code to accurately reflect the current clearance and width dimensions on TBTA bridges and tunnels and comply with this requirement.
Changes in fares for vehicles requiring special services
In 2026, the TBTA will begin processing permit applications for vehicles requiring special handling (oversize and/or overweight) using the Oversize and/or Overweight Vehicle Certification System (HOOCS). Vehicles approved to use TBTA facilities will pay an additional fee of $55 or the applicable Tolls by Mail rate, whichever is greater. The wording is in §1021.
21 NYCRR is being revised to change the fee for vehicles requiring special service.

Honest clairvoyant, strong gift. Works remotely and helps for real

I live in another city and only communicated with Maria through messenger. I was hesitant at first, but decided to give it a try. She did a diagnosis and said I was under the evil eye and had an energy breakdown. This explained a lot: fatigue, conflicts, the feeling that everything was going wrong. After the rituals, I felt as if a weight had been lifted from my soul. My sleep became calm, my headache went away, and my mood improved. Maria also did a reading for my future. Several of her predictions have already come true. I am completely amazed at how accurate everything is. Maria doesn't promise miracles; she simply does her work honestly and with passion.

PSYCHIC ALEXANDER +380971792179

Ever since I was a child, I've understood that many things in life happen for a reason. In my family, it was almost the norm to turn to fortune tellers, sorcerers, and people with abilities, both for personal and business matters. And many things worked out well for my parents and loved ones thanks to this. Of course, no one waited for the wind to blow or sat still trying to make money. But a little luck certainly didn't hurt. At least that's what we always said. Thanks to my parents, I received a good education, moved to another city, and started my own business. Overall, life went on as usual and without incident. But then, suddenly, acute problems began to pile up on me. In a matter of months, major losses and difficult trials followed one after another. My quiet life turned into a series of stresses and upheavals, which affected everything: my health, family relationships, and business. To the point that my wife started raising the question of divorce. And then I began to wonder if something was wrong. But it turned out I didn't have any old contacts, and the old sorcerer I'd consulted had died several years ago. So I started looking for someone to turn to. The magician Alexander eventually helped me sort everything out and put everything in order. I got his number +380971792179 through trusted sources and scheduled an appointment via WhatsApp. His level of clairvoyance and abilities really impressed me, and the results were visible quickly. Now I regularly turn to him when needed and recommend him to others.
 

A clairvoyant helped me bring back my loved one and change my life.

After much relationship suffering, I turned to a clairvoyant. She not only predicted my future but also helped me improve my personal life. I'm so glad I found such help! The number is +16463779379.
 

Real review: Help from a tarot reader in love

I'm writing because I know how difficult relationships can be. I was having serious problems in my love life, constant arguments, and a feeling of hopelessness. Daria immediately identified the root cause, explained what was holding me back, and helped me resolve the negativity. She also gave me advice on how to avoid making the situation worse. Over time, our relationship began to improve, and there was more warmth and understanding. I am very grateful to her for her help and support. Daria, WhatsApp: +1 646 377 9379.
