Just released on April 26th, the new HOV Hot Lanes on State Route 167 (SR 167) are making solo drivers “good to go” if they purchase one of the electronic transponders for paying tolls to use the HOV lanes. For those newer to our area, HOV stands for High Occupancy Vehicles. Yes, this means that we’re letting individuals pay for the privilege of using the carpool lane.
You can learn much more about the project by checking out this link where you’ll find a PowerPoint presentation put together by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT).
