The introduction of 180 electric school buses to New York City, alongside the development of a groundbreaking electric truck charging depot in the Bronx, marks a significant leap towards sustainable transportation. Mayor Eric Adams and U.S. Rep. Adriano Espaillat champion this initiative, emphasizing its impact on reducing emissions and creating green job opportunities. This effort aligns with Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz s proposed legislation, aimed at achieving ambitious climate goals by transitioning public transportation to zero-emission vehicles. Funding from the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law supports these endeavors, reflecting a broader commitment to rebuilding infrastructure and addressing climate change on a national scale.
Even though I have long been a principled proponent of congestion pricing, I strenuously object to any plan that would divert diesel truck traffic from Manhattan to the Bronx, particularly the Cross Bronx Expressway. The Bronx cannot and will not be a sacrificial lamb on the altar of the Central Business District.
