The speed of light imposes a minimum propagation time on all electromagnetic signals. It is not possible to reduce the latency below = / where s is the distance and c m is the speed of light in the medium (roughly 200,000 km/s for most fiber or electrical media, depending on their velocity factor).
Hochul argues congestion pricing is a net good for the entire tri-state area and that 85% of people who come to Manhattan below 60th Street do so on mass transportation.
