NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- New York City congestion pricing is likely here to stay for at least six more months.
The MTA and federal government have agreed to a timeline that would keep congestion pricing tolls on through late October, according to court documents.
The new timeline would allow the case to go through the courts.
It includes a series of dates, all with the goal of reaching a conclusion by late October.
Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy originally ordered an end to congestion pricing by March 21.
"I think it's a misuse of the program and again, taxing people a second time to drive a on road that they already pay for so you can fund your subway system because you can't figure that out, I find that be fundamentally unfair," Duffy said. "When did we have tiered -- a class system -- where the rich get to use the roads and the middle income and poor people don't get to use the roads? Is that what New York stands for? I don't think so."
New York Governor Kathy Hochul vowed to defy the order.
