Abstract:
A brief tour guide overview of high occupancy vehicle (HOV) facilities is given. Included in the discussion are events that have occurred in HOV facilities and issues since the last HOV conference--both aspects that have changed and those that have not. For example, an aspect that has not changed is the growth rate of HOV projects, while an aspect that has changed is the number of new HOV lanes. Also discussed are the issues related to HOV facilities that need to be addressed, such as air quality impacts.
