Boston congestion tax coming to Boston?
Congestion pricing is back on the table for Boston drivers. Here’s what that would mean.
Many city councilors supported an order for a hearing to learn about the benefits and drawbacks of imposing fees on drivers entering busy areas.
Boston City Council is set to explore the possibility of implementing a congestion pricing system and the impacts it could have on residents.
Congestion pricing is a method of reducing traffic and emissions by charging fees for those on the roadways during certain hours of the day.
Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson introduced a hearing order on the matter during Wednesday’s City Council meeting. Any sort of congestion pricing plan for Boston still has many hurdles to clear, but Fernandes Anderson said that now is the time to foster a deeper conversation on the idea.
Constituents have told Fernandes Anderson that they are concerned about traffic in general, and streets getting narrower and more congested due to the addition of bus and bike lanes, she said. There are also concerns about emergency vehicles successfully navigating crowded streets.
