What safety measures will be in place to manage incidents on the lanes?
The HOT lanes are designed to promote driver safety. The increased law enforcement located throughout the HOT lanes corridor will be among the most visible safety measures in place. In addition to HOV violation enforcement, these officers will enforce safe driving and will be available to respond immediately to incidents on the lanes. Closed-circuit video cameras and traffic sensors will continuously monitor the lanes and identify incidents on the HOT lanes within a few minutes. Private, dedicated incident response crews will be deployed to manage incidents quickly, in cooperation with first responders and emergency service providers. Electronic signs will alert motorists to incidents ahead.
