Gridlock in the Lincoln tunnel is also a reminder of how nuts it is we don't have dedicated tunnel lanes for buses, which carry the largest chunk of cross-river traffic

in the morning one of the Lincoln tunnel lanes becomes a bus lane(not sure why there's none in the evening, though) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln...

are there similar charts for the east river and north of manhattan?

The problem is that congestion pricing is actually the best thing to do for your city if you have *low* state capacity; but NYC prefers to neither have state capacity nor charge for road space

To be fair, you have a 50% chance of having your bus be canceled
