Additionally, Brooklyn is also getting a decrease on their daily flat rates for multiple days — with two days for $180 dollars, three days for $250, four days for $300, and five days for $350.

Brooklyn ReachNow drivers will also have access to E-Z-Pass charges for tolls for a limited time. With E-Z-Pass, ReachNow vehicles do not need to stop at toll plazas to pay for parking.

ReachNow will also be extending their limited offer for driving 41 cents per minute and parking for 30 cents per minute, according to the company.
