Martin Wachs And Brian Taylor Pen L.A. Register Op-Ed On HOT Lanes

Professor Emeritus Martin Wachs and ITS Director Brian Taylor authored an article published in the Los Angeles Register in support of creating permanent high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes on 14 miles of the Interstate 10 (the San Bernardino Freeway east of downtown) and 11 miles on the Interstate 110 (the Harbor Freeway, south of downtown). Currently, these lanes are part of an LA Metro pilot program. On Thursday, April 24, the Metro Board will vote on whether to continue the lanes, making them a permanent part of the region’s transportation system.
