8. By the Numbers… Managed Lanes Project, constructed in 3 stages (middle, north, and south) Total length = 20 miles Four-lane concurrent (NB/SB) flow with movable barrier Project cost: over $1 billion ML FasTrak Projections… Over 6 million toll transactions expected each year (after 2012) Between $7 million to $9 million in revenue per year (after 2012) Where We’re Headed I-15 Managed Lanes = Stations / Direct Access Ramps

9. Existing & New Opportunities  Existing Toll Road (SR-125)  Existing Value Pricing Corridor  New Value Pricing Corridors  Possible New Toll Roads

10. Lessons Learned There is public support for congestion pricing. Pricing works as a congestion management tool. Corridor-level public outreach and market research is needed. Given growing demands and constrained revenues, new tools such as pricing and tolling are needed. Need Authority at the State Level to expand the concept.
