This four-year pilot project which started in 2008, provides a new option for solo drivers on SR 167 and evaluates how HOT lanes and variable tolling can improve traffic flow and ease congestion. By converting the pre-existing high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes into HOT lanes, SR 167 now allows solo drivers to pay a variable, electronically collected toll using a "Good To Go!" transponder to drive in the HOT lane when there is available space
