The report covers the evaluation of a bus/car pool priority project using a newly constructed lane on Interstate 95 in Miami, Florida as a priority lane for high occupancy vehicles (HOV's). The physical and operational aspects of the system are described and the results of several studies are presented. Field studies were carried out to determine the effect of variations in signing and marking parameters. Questionnaire studies were performed to assess the attitudes of various road user groups regarding the operation of the system. The safety-related aspects (violations, enforcement, and accidents) were also investigated. It was concluded in general that the system produced significant operational improvement.
