New York to end horse-drawn carriages in 2028
The New York City Council voted in favor of banning horse-drawn carriages on public streets and within Central Park starting in June 2028, with 40 out of 51 legislators supporting the measure, backed by Mayor Zahran Madani. This decision is part of an effort to end a long-standing tourist tradition associated with the city's image and attraction of visitors, amid concerns over past incidents such as the death of an Indian tourist in 2026 after falling from a carriage. The ban aims to replace this activity with newer, safer, and more innovative tourist experiences.
