Arrows represent the direction of travelduring the morning peak period. Direction of travel is reversed during the afternoon peak period on these HOV facilities

Right-of-Way preservation should be encouraged in all freeway corridors to accommodate potential future HOV facilities.

New facility locations indicate transportation needs and do not represent specific alignments.

All HOV facilities will be managed for mobility efficiency.

MOBILITY 2025Revenue/Cost ImbalanceReconciliation Initiatives

Pursue Congestion Pricing OpportunitiesThrough Managed Facilities in Specific Corridors Identified Through Major Investment Studies

Continue Value Engineering Initiatives

Increase D-FW Share of State Allocations

Continue to Pursue Legislative Actions Aimed at:

Increasing Revenue Through Initiatives Identified by the RTC Mobility Plan Finance Subcommittee

Decreasing Project Costs Through Streamlining the Project Development Process
