"The early data backs up what New Yorkers have been telling us all week - traffic is down, the streets feel safer, and buses are moving faster," said Janno Lieber, head of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
"Overall travel times are 30-40% faster on inbound river crossings into Manhattan, which has the most congested traffic in the United States."
The MTA has said the program will eventually result in 80,000 fewer cars a day, about an 11% reduction, which will significantly improve traffic and travel times.
