We’ve kept Gothamist free, but we need your support. [View this email in a browser.]( [Gothamist Logo] [Year in Review: Congestion Pricing]( Hey Gothamist Reader, I’m Stephen Nessen, and I cover transportation for Gothamist. One of the most significant issues on my beat this year has been congestion pricing. The idea that drivers should pay a fee to drive in the busiest part of the city goes back decades, but this is the year that all the pieces have fallen into place. The MTA is on the brink of actually doing it. For the past year, I’ve reported on the MTA’s plan and discussions behind the scenes while explaining what it could mean to you. I’ve interviewed [international experts]( on how it works in other cities, what we can expect, and what advice they have for us. I’ve [spoken to drivers, business owners,]( people living in the congestion zone, and people who commute into the city to get all the perspectives. I can dedicate the time to explain this complicated story because our non-profit newsroom is committed to ensuring you’re informed. The stories you read on Gothamist are free, [thanks to the financial support]( from readers like you. [I Support Gothamist]( Now that we’re at the end of the year, your contribution is more important than ever. [Your support today]( will help us produce the journalism you and your fellow New Yorkers will rely on in the year ahead. Why give right now? Donate before the end of the year, and we’ll include our newest [Gothamist T-shirt]( to thank you for your support. [YES! I Want the Shirt]( Getting around New York can be complicated at times, but with your support, my colleagues and I will be there to help guide you and make it easy. [Stephen Nessen] Thanks for your support,
Stephen P.S. The T-shirts are available in sizes XS-3XL and three different color combinations - you choose the one you like best! Don’t forget: the [deadline to get a shirt is December 31st.]( [New York Public Radio] [WNYC]( | [WQXR]( | [NJPR]( | [GOTHAMIST](
