Talk:Express lanes

Untitled

This page was created because the examples on this page were removed from local-express lanes because these express lanes operate much differently from local-express lane system. TEG 17:18, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, but I definitely don't think both articles should exist. They sound like two branches off the same tree, and it's the tree that needs to be the article because this one's too short. I would use a table (helpful) or a diagram (far more helpful) on that page to give a concise summary of the differences between "express lanes" and "local-express lanes".

I also want to know if AASHTO or the various state DOTs use this sort of terminology. —Rob (talk) 18:50, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well I created this page, because all the information that is here was removed from the local-express page. They are functionally as well as systematicly different system than the local-express system.TEG 18:55, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your definition of EXPRESS lanes is not the official FWHA definition, it was the definition used in their High Occupancy Toll paper.

Personally, I think we need to change this to a disambiguation page as their are (at least) three different uses for express lanes. In a local-express lane system, in reversible lanes, and for lanes for automated collection of tolls. Actually, I just thought of quite a few more uses express lanes are at the supermarket too. -- KelleyCook 17:49, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Talk:Contraflow lane reversal regarding a potential move of the information here to a new article, possibly at Reversible roadway. Jason McHuff 06:04, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
