On Chat Box this week, transportation reporters Colleen Wilson of NorthJersey.com and Larry Higgs of NJ.com talk about the impact of New York City’s first-in-the-nation congestion pricing toll program. They discuss whether the program could reduce traffic and if New Jersey Transit and PATH are ready for an influx of commuters. They’ll also discuss the latest toll hikes in the Garden State and future infrastructure projects.
Later, Nedia Morsy of Make the Road New Jersey discusses the controversial immigration bills passed in the House, the chances for immigration reform and the challenges ahead for immigrant advocate groups in New Jersey.
