This conference presentation focuses on the role of High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) facilities in addressing many of the issues outlined in the current National Transportation Policy. It is pointed out that HOV facilities have a role to play in dealing with traffic congestion and gridlock; in providing for more efficient and effective utilization of our highway systems and expanding the person-carrying capacity of these facilities; in improving the overall safety of roadways; in protecting the environment and enhancing the quality of life in metropolitan areas; and in increasing energy efficiency.
