Christiansen, D L; McCasland, W R

The report documents the data collected in April through June 1986, one year after carpool utilization of the authorized vehicle lane (AVL) was permitted. Comprehensive traffic data, both on the AVL and the freeway, were collected. In addition, surveys of transit users on the AVL, vanpool drivers on the AVL, vanpool passengers on the AVL, carpool drivers on the AVL, carpool passengers on the AVL, and motorists not using the AVL were undertaken. In the report, these data are compared to similar data collected before carpool utilization was permitted to identify the impacts of permitting carpools to use the AVL.
