What are the large ramps being built in the middle of the freeway?
Direct access ramps allow buses, carpools, vanpools, and motorcycles to directly access the HOV lanes in the center of the freeway. They come down from above the mainline (or up from below) and merge into the HOV lane from the middle of the freeway. By enabling HOVs to connect directly with HOV lanes, vehicles avoid the need to weave across the freeway. Direct access ramps have improved safety, shortened travel times, improved travel time reliability, and created smoother driving conditions for all freeway users.
