Our Novemeber Meeting features Charles Komanoff, Congestion Pricing Modeler at the Carbon Tax Center
Economist and policy-analyst Charles Komanoff has been a central figure in the campaign to bring congestion pricing to New York City. His “BTA” Excel spreadsheet was used by state officials to scope the 2019 congestion pricing (CP) legislation, and his 100 (and counting) essays in Streetsblog, The New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/08/opinion/traffic-new-york-congestion.html), and other outlets discuss the benefits of CP for New York. In the 1980’s and 1990’s Mr. Komanoff spearheaded the revival of the bicycling advocacy organization Transportation Alternatives. Previously, his documentation of utility company misfeasance in failed nuclear power ventures saved billions for electricity customers in New York, California, and other states. His body of work includes books, scholarly articles, and journalism. An honors graduate of Harvard and parent of two grown sons, Mr. Komanoff lives in lower Manhattan.
