Abstract:Growing traffic congestion has become an
increasingly troublesome issue in urban
areas throughout the nation, and state and
local agencies are exploring new ways to
manage new and existing highway facilities
more effectively. Of special interest to transportation
practitioners is the high occupancy
toll (HOT) lane concept, an increasingly popular
and common type of managed lane facility
that adds electronic tolling to an existing HOV
facility.
How best to balance the desire to preserve
existing HOV privilege with having enough
excess capacity to sell to single occupant
vehicles (SOVs) is a major challenge in planning
and design of an HOT lane conversion.
