STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- With NYC congestion pricing in place, traffic might actually be improving, according to the MTA. This week, the agency unveiled a new batch of congestion pricing data that shows fewer cars and improved travel times on some of New York City’s highest-trafficked roads.

Is NYC's congestion pricing working to improve traffic in Manhattan? Here's a look at the MTA data for the first three weeks.

Drive times into Manhattan have dropped dramatically since the institution of New York’s congestion tolling program, according to data released Wednesday by the MTA — with the most significant improvements at the Holland Tunnel.

MTA officials say they’ve seen a mountain of early data to back up what many drivers have noticed: much less traffic in the three-plus weeks since congestion pricing began.
