The first congestion pricing plan in the U.S. has begun, charging most drivers $9 a day to enter the lower half of Manhattan. The long-debated plan is projected to raise up to $800 million a year for the city's aging public transit system.

According to the New York Post, Murphy has launched a billboard campaign promoting a $20 million initiative to reward New York companies that let employees work in New Jersey, bypassing the $9 congestion toll.
