The latest streets and transportation news from Streetsblog NYC.

Today, for the second time in as many weeks, Charles Komanoff leads our website with another exclusive data analysis that shows that the South Bronx is not being inundated with cars and trucks, as congestion pricing opponents speciously predicted.

Does that mean we should ignore The Bronx? No, thonx! We love the Boogie Down and the MTA and city and state departments of Transportation need to do more to build livable, safe and pollution-free streets there.

But for now, at least, congestion pricing is one less worry.

Plus other news. Have a great weekend, let’s go, Mets, and wish our editor luck with his latest bout with Covid.
