"New Yorkers can count on new train cars, more reliable service and cleaner air, all thanks to Gov. Hochul's leadership," MTA Chair and CEO Janno Lieber said. ????? ???????  

Additional discounts are being introduced for low-income drivers making less than $50,000 annually, who will receive a 50% discount after their 10th toll each month. ????????????  

The decision, Hochul explained, was crafted to ease the financial burden on New York's working families while maintaining critical funding for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. ?????  

Extra per-ride surcharge is now 75 cents for taxis and black car services, down from $1.25, and $1.50 for Ubers and Lyfts, down from $2.50, Hochul announced on Thursday. ????? ???????  

The revised version -- set to take effect on Jan. 5, even though it's opposed by President-elect Donald Trump -- reduces the base toll to $9 for most passenger vehicles, down from $15. Hochul had put the $15 plan on hold in June, just days before it was to launch, amid pressure from both sides of the aisle. ????????????
