Express lanes users only pay if they choose to travel on the express lanes. Motorists will continue to have the option to use the existing general purpose lanes, as a toll-free option. Rates on the express lanes will be dynamic which aids in managing the number of motorists that use the lanes while still meeting expectations for free-flowing travel to ensure reliable trip times.

In addition, transit vehicles traveling the express lanes will experience a more reliable trip, improving the overall transit experience for the numerous riders who choose transit as a mobility option. The express lanes support the existing general purpose lanes by providing travel choices in mobility to make a behavioral decision based on the need of a reliable trip time.

Commenters requested information regarding why the new lanes are being priced, how pricing is set, and who can use the lanes for free.
How will the toll revenue be spent?
