Caltrans,
District 7 (Los Angeles/Ventura County) is home
to the nation’s most extensive High Occupancy
Vehicle lane program, which will be adding carpool
lanes to virtually every freeway in the Los Angeles
area.
The HOV program is the backbone of a multi-modal
transportation system. In providing an HOV system,
Caltrans is providing the network necessary for
the higher level mass transit systems in the future.
The HOV system is also the least expensive method
or alternative to accommodate economic growth and
development.
The 5 billion HOV program is designed to quickly
increase mobility in the region. HOV lanes are seen
as the next logical step in improving freeway efficiency
to accommodate future increases in population and
traffic.
