The northernmost boundary for congestion pricing in Manhattan is likely to change from 86th street to 60th street, according to Crain's New York.

The commission in charge of reviewing Mayor Bloomberg's congestion pricing plan believes the change is necessary to boost public support, which is currently shaky. "Because of the public hearings and the issues raised by the Assembly and others, a whole range of issues is being looked at," says Marc Shaw, chairman of the commission. "The overall desire is to find a way to reduce congestion and do it in a way that doesn't have a negative impact on the economy."

However, changing the plan is easier said than done. Congestion Pricing Commission Member Kathryn Wilde notes that "Changing the plan will mean revisiting all the concessions and considerations involved with the MTA and Port Authority in particular, but also the state Department of Transportation, the state of New Jersey and the jurisdictions of Long Island and Westchester. It's just not that simple."
