摘要

Traffic congestion on U.S. highways serving our largest metropolitan regions have reached unprecedented levels despite our heroic but, ultimately, failed efforts to build more highways in response to the nation's insatiable demand for travel. With the benefit of several decades worth of hindsight, the U.S. transportation policy community has pledged a renewed commitment to attacking the urban transportation problem through a combination of demand and system management strategies focused on managing our existing transportation supply more effectively and efficiently. Some of these ideas have been around for as long as the automobile itself. A major cornerstone of transportation system management (TSM) is the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane, which was first popularized in the U.S. during World War II as part a national fuel rationing program. Highway agencies and toll authorities across the U.S. operate over 2,500 HOV lane miles, with approximately 2,500 more HOV lane-miles planned over the next thirty years. The presence of HOV lanes is an important inducement for ridesharing, which reduces vehicle trips and, in turn, lowers traffic congestion.
