in New York City, anyway - the mayor has been talking about a fee for cars that enter a specific area in Manhattan.
Often, though, the problem is not money, but people. When people from point A (a lower-class neighborhood) want to get to point B (their work), and point C (a "high-class" neighborhood) is in between, the people at point C will often intervene to stop, or attempt to stop, public transit from starting that route - because they don't want "those noisy buses/trains", or they just don't want "those people" around. |
