ETA Position on I-405 Double HOT Lanes

ETA's Research Committee has met with WSDOT staff several times to review and quantify WSDOT's published data in the Eastside Corridor Tolling Study published Oct. 2009. Dr. Bill Eager will present ETA's findings on the impacts of the proposed HOT Lanes on I-405 to the General Purpose (GP) traffic in the GP lanes.

Toll revenues are a major element of the HOT lane proposal. Can HOT lane tolls be expected to pay for significant construction costs? Will they do a better job on I-405 of just paying their own Operations and Maintenance costs than the currently do on SR-167 pilot project? What is the expected toll rate?

Join us and help formulate ETA's position on I-405 HOT lanes

Complimentary coffee, tea, and rolls will be available.
