Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, responding to an advocacy group's report about traffic congestion in Manhattan, said that congestion pricing was among several options the city should examine. Mr. Bloomberg struck a more moderate tone at a news conference, where he was asked about a report by Transportation Alternatives, an advocacy group for pedestrians and cyclists. But the mayor also argued that there were unforeseen drawbacks to many alternatives that looked good on paper like shifting truck deliveries to nighttime hours and installing speed bumps on busy streets.
