There are separate, unmetered HOV bypass lanes at some ramps such as Lake Mead Boulevard and Cheyenne Avenue. Why do we need HOV lanes?
A 17: Some metered ramps also will feature an HOV bypass lane. The purpose of this special lane is to provide a faster access for vehicles with two or more persons. This encourages ridesharing by providing a special benefit for those who carpool, vanpool, or ride the bus. The more people carpool, the fewer cars there are on the road and the better it is for everyone.
