Title

91 Express Lanes Update and Temporary Measures

 

Overview

Traffic volumes on the 91 Express Lanes have declined significantly over the past several weeks as a result of the coronavirus pandemic and California Governor Gavin Newsom’s stay-at-home order.  This report provides the latest information on traffic volumes and operations.

 

Recommendation(s)

A.                     Authorize the Chief Executive Officer to temporarily waive for a period of up to 90 days, 91 Express Lanes monthly account fees, contingent upon a similar approval from the Riverside County Transportation Commission.

 

B.                     Authorize the Chief Executive Officer to temporarily modify for a period of up to 90 days the 91 Express Lanes Toll Policy to allow for the ability to remove automatic toll rates increases, if necessary.
