Federal prosecutors are cautioning the U.S. Department of Transportation regarding significant litigation risks associated with the termination of New York City’s Central Business District Tolling Program (CBDTP). They advise leveraging regulations from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for a more defensible termination strategy amid concerns about the legality of Secretary Duffy's decision. The DOJ believes that courts may interpret congestion pricing broadly, supporting the CBDTP's implementation under the Value Pricing Pilot Program instead of simply viewing it as a revenue generation tactic.
Federal prosecutors cautioned the U.S. Department of Transportation about high litigation risks in terminating New York's Central Business District Tolling Program and recommended a different approach.
The Department of Justice's guidance emphasizes a more defensible strategy under OMB guidelines rather than directly challenging the legality of the congestion pricing model.
