IBTTA and the TRB Committee on Managed Lanes (ACP 35) are running a webinar next week for transport professionals who are currently operating managed lanes or planning to do so.

Managed Lanes and HOV Enforcement Practices and Technologies will cover pilot projects - including traditional camera-based systems and app-based HOV declaration technologies - and their results and findings.

A variety of automated vehicle occupancy detection solutions are being trialled in an attempt to reduce high violation rates, improve enforcement and assist with issuing citations. 

Presenters will cover topics such as best practices in deploying technologies, performance and reporting requirements, procurement, and the sort of organisational and policy changes which are needed.

Managed Lanes and HOV Enforcement Practices and Technologies is on 12 Nov at 11am ET.

    When Barcelona imposed an 80km/h (50mph), the result was significant in environmental, accident, fatality and injury terms. The 80km/h speed limit had the same positive environmental effect as if 22,100 cars were eliminated from the roads in the metropolitan area. Moreover, a reduction in the consumption of fuel by more than 24,000 tonnes per year was also achieved, while accidents, fatalities and injuries also showed substantial improvement.
