Abstract

This report evaluates the operation of freeway high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes in Houston and Dallas through calendar year 1992. This research provides an analysis of data related to: (1) operation of the HOV lanes; (2) operation of the freeway mainlanes; (3) combined HOV lane and freeway data; and (4) data relating to transit usage and operations. Both a `before` and `after` trend line analysis (where applicable) and a comparison to control freeways are used as a means of assessing the impacts of the HOV facilities.
