A federal judge is expected to rule Friday on whether New York City congestion pricing can start this weekend as scheduled. The MTA's new Manhattan toll plan is set to start Jan. 5, but attorneys representing New Jersey officials say they will ask Judge Leo Gordon to issue a temporary restraining order in a last-ditch attempt to kill it during the afternoon court hearing.

Congestion pricing is kicking in in midtown and lower Manhattan: When does it start? How much will I pay? How can I get to New Jersey or Queens without paying? Will taxis and Ubers cost more?

Business owners warn the deeply unpopular charge will affect everyone in the city, as they will be forced to pass on their increased costs to customers.
