• Since 1988, the facility has contained two express lanes that are accessible, free of
charge, to high-occupancy vehicles (HOVs) - i.e., vehicles with two or more occupants.
To increase utilization of the express lanes and relieve traffic congestion on the regular
lanes, single-occupancy vehicles (SOVs) are now being given the opportunity to use the
express lanes for a fee/toll. (HOVs will continue to pay no toll.)
• This program has not weakened the incentives for motorists to rideshare. HOV usage has
increased by 15% since the facility's inception according the San Diego State
University's Evaluation of the pricing project.
