New York City Plans to Phase Out Horse-Drawn Carriages Under 'Romanch's Law'

New York City is set to phase out horse-drawn carriages in Central Park by June 2028 under proposed legislation named 'Romanch’s Law'.

The push to ban carriages intensified after 18-year-old Indian tourist Romanch Mahajan died from injuries sustained in an accident in June.

The City Council is expected to vote on the bill next week with a projected veto-proof majority, while providing protections for industry workers.
