P.S. Sriraj, director of the Urban Transportation Center and research associate professor at UIC, is interviewed in a Crain’s Chicago Business story on Uber’s counter-proposal to Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s proposed ride-hail tax that would increasing fees on Uber and other ridesharing trips to address congestion in the city. Sriraj said the mayor’s proposal would be effective in tackling downtown congestion, “if there is a clear proof” that ride-hails are adding pressure to downtown roads. http://bit.ly/342Rsy1 (subscription required)
