The managed lane concept is being considered for major freeway projects in many metropolitan areas in the State of Texas. A key component of the managed lane concept is pricing strategy and fee charged to various types of vehicles and user groups. In spite of the useful insights provided by the existing literature on managed lane studies, little is known about the price impact on demand for managed lanes and variations among different user groups. Also overlooked are methods that can apply price elasticity information to the evaluation and selection of optimal pricing strategies. This project investigates travelers' attitudes toward the managed lane concept and develops a tool for evaluating the impacts of various pricing policies and selecting appropriate options for managed lanes in the State of Texas.
