This report summarizes the activities conducted on a variety of topics for the Texas Department of Transportation, Houston District. High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) Lane evaluations were conducted quarterly on five facilities, measuring the vehicle occupancies, volumes, and travel times. Vehicle usage counts were also made at twenty-nine park and ride facilities. Dynamic Lane Assignment Systems (DALAS) were evaluated to determine if approach capacities on frontage roads could be adjusted to traffic demands. Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) Systems, Phases 1 and 2, were designed for freeway traffic monitoring.
