    Wow, even the Cross Bronx is seeing less traffic? That’s amazing!

    I haven’t driven through there lately but will have to dig into it a bit: GPS tends to take me through the city if I travel south and I have no idea if it crosses over into the congestion pricing zone. And it’s not like I can set GPS to avoid tolls - no one has that kind of time

      Yeah, this is great. Too bad these graphs don’t show the number of cars over time. I’d be curious to see if the Cross Bronx is seeing a the same or higher throughput of cars, and due to less traffic in Manhattan, there’s no longer a bottleneck that is backing up onto the Cross Bronx which is how people are going faster?

      The west side highway and FDR are exempt from the congestion toll if ever you pass through the city heading south.
