At least its not like Orange County where they have WHOLE FREEWAYS that are fastrack ONLY. All day, everyday, with no free lanes in sight.
- bubblethink 5y agoOld HOV lanes were 7 AM - 9 AM and 4 PM - 7 PM or something like that. So outside of those hours, everything was pretty load balanced, which makes sense. This move seems to be more about revenue maximization than reducing traffic. They haven't even completed the full stretch from SF to south bay, but once they do, it would cost about $10 to do that run. Add $5 in gas, and you are looking at $15 per trip, one-way. Tax dollars at work.
