  • there are two or more lanes adjacent to the proposed exclusive lane for the use of other vehicles; or
  • there is a multi-lane facility adjacent to the proposed exclusive lane for the use of other vehicles.
A toll may be charged for the use of the exclusive lane if:
  • the lanes or multi-lane facility adjacent to the exclusive lanes are also tolled; or
  • a vehicle authorized to use the tolled exclusive lane is authorized to use non-tolled adjacent lanes or an adjacent non-tolled multi-lane facility.
