including its origins, milestones, and summary of results after its full fiscal year.
Chair Berkson asked if revenue is generated from violations given, and Mr. Blomquist
confirmed revenue is generated and that is included in the overall revenue results and
can be broken down in future reports.
In response to questions regarding excess revenue, Mr. Blomquist stated gross revenue
is used to operate the facility on an annual basis, establish reserve funds for long-term
maintenance, a separate one-time reserve fund to satisfy financing requirements, and the
debt payment. After all obligations are paid, surplus revenue is statutorily required by the
tolling authority to be spent for transportation purposes within the corridor within which
it was generated. The Commission will decide how to use any surplus revenue in the
future. Anne Mayer, Executive Director, clarified fifty percent of surplus revenue goes
towards repayment of the TIFIA loan.
Jennifer Crosson, Toll Operations Manager, clarified the Toll Program does not receive
any revenue from citations issued by the California Highway Patrol (CHP) as that revenue
goes back to the State. The purpose of having a contract with the CHP is to provide a
deterrent and to assist with incident management.

RCTC PEAK-HOUR VOLUMES
RCTC regularly evaluates traffic volumes for peak period hours where Express Lanes
performance is degraded and either increases or decreases tolls. Toll rates were adjusted once
in October to improve the level of service in the peak hours where demand exceeded capacity.
Hours highlighted in green were increased and hours highlighted in red were decreased. Hours
that are highlighted in yellow were flagged for continued evaluation.

performance is degraded and either increases or decreases tolls. Toll rates were
adjusted once in November to improve the level of service in the peak hours where
demand exceeded capacity. Hours highlighted in green were increased and hours
highlighted in red were decreased. Hours that are highlighted in yellow were flagged for
continued evaluation.

RCTC OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
On -road Operations
RCTC Freeway Service Patrol (FSP) responded to 82 calls during the month of November.
Of those calls, 56 were to assist disabled vehicles, 8 were to remove debris, 10 were for
traffic breaks, and 8 were in response to accidents.
6C Transponder Technology
Planning for the transition to the new transponder technology is underway. The lane
system will be upgraded over a series of weekend with completion of that work expected
by early spring 2019. The new sticker transponders have been received and are being
prepared for distribution. Changes to the back office system to process the new
transponders and make changes to the customer account plan are being finalized and
will be released to the customer once both the RCTC and OCTA lane system upgrades
are performed. A series of customer communication has been prepared to facilitate the
process for providing the new transponders to customers.

OCTA OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
On -road Operations
OCTA Customer Assistance Specialists (CAS) responded to 109 calls during the month
of December. Of those calls, 96 were to assist disabled vehicles and 1 call to remove
debris. The CAS provided assistance to 7 accidents in the Express Lanes and 5 accidents
originating from the SR91 general-purpose lanes.
Electronic Toll and Traffic Management System Project Update
An agreement with Kapsch TrafficCom USA, Inc., (Kapsch) was executed in June 2018
to provide toll lane system integrator services for the design, installation, operations, and
maintenance of the electronic toll and traffic management system for the 91 Express
Lanes. In December, Kapsch has developed several project plans and documentations
and held weekly coordination meetings with OCTA and Cofiroute in preparation for the
transition to the new lane system. This new lane system will be able to read the new 6C
protocol as well as the current Title 21 protocol. Following RCTC's completion of their
lane system installation on the 91 Express Lanes, OCTA will commence installation on
the Orange County segment. It is anticipated the OCTA lane system equipment at the
gantries will be replaced in spring 2019.
6C Transition Update
In addition to the lane system replacement, the back -office system will need to be
modified in order to process the new transponders and changes to the customer account
plans. Modification to the back -office system will commence when the lane system
installations for both OCTA and RCTC have been completed. Distribution of the new 6C
transponders to customers will begin after the back -office system changes have been
made. OCTA and RCTC have prepared a series of customer communication to be
provided to customers to facilitate the transition to the new protocol and changes to the
account plans.
Amendment to the Three -Party Operating Agreement
As referenced above, due to the back -office system changes, an amendment to the
OCTA, RCTC, Cofiroute USA (CUSA) Operating Agreement is required. Staff from both
OCTA and RCTC have been in negotiations with CUSA for the amendment. It is
04, Express

anticipated there will be no change to the maximum obligation of the contract. The
amendment is expected to be finalized by early spring 2019.
California Highway Patrol Agreement
Staff is currently in discussion with the California Highway Patrol (CHP) for a new
agreement to provide enforcement services on the OCTA 91 Express Lanes. As a
requirement of the Franchise Agreement, OCTA is required to use CHP for enforcement
services. Staff will be bringing forth the agreement for Board approval in the next few
months.

RCTC OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
On -road Operations
RCTC Freeway Service Patrol (FSP) responded to 65 calls during the month of December.
Of those calls, 41 were to assist disabled vehicles, 2 were to remove debris, 13 were for
traffic breaks, and 9 were in response to accidents.
6C Transponder Technology
Planning for the transition to the new transponder technology is underway. The lane
system will be upgraded over a series of weekend with completion of that work expected
by early spring 2019. The new sticker transponders have been received and are being
prepared for distribution. Changes to the back office system to process the new
transponders and make changes to the customer account plan are being finalized and
will be released to the customer once both the RCTC and OCTA lane system upgrades
are performed. A series of customer communication has been prepared to facilitate the
process for providing the new transponders to customers.

AGENDA ITEM 8
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
February 28, 2019
TO:
Toll Policy and Operations Committee
FROM:
Jennifer Crosson, Toll Operations Manager
THROUGH:
Michael Blomquist, Toll Program Director
SUBJECT:
15 Express Lanes Customer Transponder Account Fee Policies and Toll Policies
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Adopt Resolution No. 19-003, "Resolution of the Riverside County Transportation
Commission Adopting the Amended and Restated Interstate 15 Express Lanes Toll Policy
Goals and Toll Policies";
2) Adopt Resolution No. 19-004, "Resolution of the Riverside County Transportation
Commission Regarding the 15 Express Lanes Transponder and Customer Account Fee
Policies"; and
3) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Resolution 19-003 — Amended and Restated Interstate 15 Express Lanes Toll Policy Goals and
Toll Policies
In June 2016, the Commission adopted Resolution No. 16-011, "Resolution of the Riverside
County Transportation Commission Regarding Interstate 15 Express Lanes Toll Policy Goals and
Toll Policies". Resolution No. 16-011 included overarching toll policies. As development of the
toll system progresses, the need to revise one of the toll policies adopted as a part of Resolution
No. 16-011 arose as did the need to adopt transponder and account fee policies.
Resolution No. 16-011 provided for a 50 percent toll discount for zero emission vehicles three
months following the opening of the 15 Express Lanes. At the time the resolution was adopted,
the Commission had no technical solution for uniquely identifying zero emission vehicles, so they
were to be treated the same as vehicles with three or more passengers (HOV3+). Since that time,
staff has worked, as part of the California Toll Operators Committee, to develop a method for
identifying qualified zero emission vehicles to address concerns over the impact of heavily
discounted zero emission vehicles on express lanes' performance.
The 15 Express Lanes toll system will be able to identify qualified zero emission vehicles through
their FasTrak® account, allowing for a unique zero emission vehicle toll discount. Staff
Agenda Item 8
69
recommends that Resolution No. 19-003 be adopted to amend the discount for qualified zero
emission vehicles to 15 percent. This discount is to be applied commencing upon the 15 Express
Lanes opening. Zero emission vehicle owners will be required to register their zero emission
vehicle with the 15 Express Lanes Customer Service Center, or with their account holding agency
if other than the 15 Express Lanes, so they can receive a discount on the 15 Express Lanes. On
March 1, 2019, the Los Angeles Metro Express Lanes will commence a 15 percent discount for
qualified zero emission vehicles. Workshops with other California express lanes operators
indicate that they will be seeking to enact a discount of 10 percent to 15 percent for qualified
zero emission vehicles.
Resolution 19-004 —15 Express Lanes Transponder and Customer Account Fee Policies
Adoption of Resolution No. 19-004 will establish the transponder and customer account fees for
15 Express Lanes account holders. The 15 Express Lanes will open FasTrak® accounts for new
customers who do not already have a FasTrak® account with another California toll agency,
including the 91 Express Lanes. 15 Express Lanes account holders will be able to use the
transponder they obtain from the 15 Express Lane customer service center on any toll facility in
California for a seamless experience.
The 15 Express Lanes accounts will be prepaid accounts, requiring a customer to deposit a
prepaid toll amount for use in the payment of tolls. Accounts secured with a debit or credit card
will auto -replenish when the account funds become low. Accounts replenished with cash will be
required to make payment to maintain the required prepaid balance. The amount of prepaid
tolls is based on the amount of monthly toll usage and will vary from one customer to another.
The Commission must adopt a resolution for fees it will charge customers. The 15 Express Lanes
accounts are structured in a simple format with few fees to provide a transparent and simple
approach for customers.
The 15 Express Lanes Transponder and Customer Account Fee Table 1 below provides a listing of
the fees for approval by the Commission.

Transponder Fees
The 15 Express Lanes will issue two types of transponders: sticker transponders and switchable
transponders. The recommended price is $5.00 for the sticker transponders and $15.00 for
switchable transponders. The price covers the Commission's cost to purchase, inventory and
distribute transponders. A switchable transponder will be accompanied by a sticker transponder
as the goal is to have a sticker transponder in every vehicle and a switchable transponder in
vehicles wishing to earn a discount for carpooling. Business rules have been created to address
the replacement of faulty transponders at no cost to the customer.
Mailed Paper Statement Fee
As is common in the customer service industry, the 15 Express Lanes will be striving for the
delivery of statements electronically to reduce paper use and associated costs. Customers will be
defaulted to the e-statement method of delivery but will be given the option for a printed
statement on demand, monthly or quarterly, for $2 a statement. Statements will be available on
the 15 Express Lanes customer website allowing a customer to download and print a statement
at any time for no charge.
Monthly Account Fee
A monthly fee of $2 per account has been included to cover the cost of establishing and
maintaining the customer account system.
Non -Sufficient Fund Check Fee
The 15 Express Lanes will accept checks for both FasTrak® account payments and violation
payments. A check not honored by a customer's bank will result in a fee charged by the
Commission's bank and additional processing by the Commission and its contractor. A $25 fee is
proposed to cover the Commission's cost.
Account Suspension Fee
If a customer fails to maintain a positive prepaid balance, the account will be suspended. Prior to
suspension, the customer will receive written, electronic and telephonic notifications regarding
the status of the account. If the customer fails to respond to such notification and continues to
use the transponder, the account will be suspended to prevent the account from creating
outstanding debt with the Commission. If a customer's account is suspended twice in a twelve-
month period, a $25 fee will be assessed.
Pay -by -Plate Fee
The 15 Express Lanes will require the use of a properly mounted transponder. If a customer uses
the 15 Express Lanes without a transponder more times than allowed, a $2 fee will be attached
Agenda Item 8
71
to each transaction to cover the Commission's cost. The customer service center will work with
customers to ensure they have a transponder for each of their vehicles, and that transponders
are properly mounted and functioning correctly prior to the assessment of the pay -by -plate fee.
SUMMARY:
The proposed 15 Express Lanes account fees are similar to those used on the 91 Express Lanes
and to the account fees imposed by other toll agencies in California. The revenue generated from
the proposed account fees was included in the financial model used to secure financing for the
15 Express Lanes.
The fees represent a simple approach to account management and are based on fiscally
responsible principles with the fees closely matching the Commission's cost to provide account
management services.
The revised toll discount for qualified zero emission vehicles is also in line with the discount to
be applied by Los Angeles Metro Express Lanes and being considered by other toll agencies in
California.
Staff recommends that the Committee approve Resolutions No. 19-003 and 19-004 and forward
to the Commission for final action.
There is no fiscal impact related to the adoption of the toll policy goals and toll policies.

Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRHES
Introduction
This report provides a description of the toll policies that form the basis for the Concept of Operations,
which serves as the framework for the ultimate design of the 1-15 Express Lanes Project. These toll policies
will also be used as key assumptions for the 1-15 Express Lanes Traffic and Revenue Study prepared
separately.
The 1-15 Express Lanes Project will generally include two tolled express lanes in each direction on
Interstate 15 (1-15) in Riverside County between Cajalco Road in Corona and the State Route 60 (SR-60)
interchange, a distance of approximately 15 miles. The Project is being developed by the Riverside County
Transportation Commission (RCTC) in partnership with the California Department of Transportation
(Caltrans) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The Express Lanes are intended to improve
current and projected future congestion by adding capacity that can be managed and operated in a
manner consistent with the policies described in this document.
RCTC developed a set of toll policy goals that provided a foundation for the development of the policies
described in this document. These goals are described in the next section, followed by a table summarizing
each of the toll policies and how each policy achieves the stated goals.

Toll Policy Goals
Description:
In partnership with federal, state, regional, and local agencies, RCTC develops and oversees transportation
plans, policies, funding programs, and both short-term and long-range solutions that address the county's
increasing mobility, accessibility, and environmental needs.
The establishment of Express Lanes on 1-15 within the County
has the potential to assist Riverside County in meeting many
of its mobility, air quality, and funding challenges. Vital to this
effort are toll policies which fulfill RCTC's goals and objectives
for transportation system performance and revenue
sustainability.
RCTC's toll policy goals and objectives are guidelines for
developing specific policies and business rules that inform the toll collection aspects of the design and
operation of the 1-15 Express Lanes. Given the corridor's adjacency to the SR-91 corridor, and the more
recent effort by RCTC in setting policies and goals for Express Lanes in that corridor, the toll policy goals
for 1-15 are similar to those developed by RCTC for the Riverside 91 Express Lanes to provide for regional
consistency.
EXPRESS !PIES
Background:
RCTC, in cooperation with the Caltrans, is proposing a project to improve traffic flow and reduce
congestion on a portion of 1-15. The project proposes to construct two tolled Express Lanes generally in
each direction between the I-15/Cajalco Road interchange and the I-15/SR-60 interchange. All proposed
improvements are anticipated to be constructed within existing Caltrans right of way, with the majority
of the improvements occurring within the existing 1-15 median.
According to the 1-15 Tolled Express Lane Corridor Improvement Program Draft Forecast Traffic Volume
Development Report, the primary purpose of the project is to address current and future (2040) travel
demand and improve traffic operations on the 1-15 corridor, which has been identified as a corridor that
needs capacity improvements to address existing and projected capacity deficiencies from the accelerated
growth and development that has taken place in communities along the 1-15 corridor and is expected to
continue. As a result of the on -going accelerated growth and development, the 1-15 corridor will
experience increased congestion, longer commute times, increased energy consumption, air pollution,
higher accident rates and the degradation of the freeway mainline, local interchanges, and the adjacent
local arterials. The operational breakdown of these facilities is expected to have significant adverse
impacts on the economic vitality of the region and the transport of goods and services along this corridor.

Recommendation:
RCTC staff recommends the following goals for the 1-15 Express Lanes:
1. Provide Express Lane customers with a safe, reliable, and congestion free trip.
2. Deliver exceptional, consistent, and responsive customer service.
3. Enact toll policies that balance commute choice and lane availability for all customers.
4. Provide the infrastructure and an incentive for ridesharing and increased transit use as an
alternative to driving alone.
5. Generate sufficient revenue to meet Express Lane financial obligations to pay current and long-
term costs.
6. Use surplus revenues for transportation improvements exclusively within the Interstate 15
corridor.

1— 2. Toll Pricing Objectives
Description:
Express lane pricing serves as a tool to regulate demand and preserve optimal operating conditions. A
primary goal of express lanes is to maintain priority access for high occupancy vehicles (HOVs), buses and
vanpools to achieve high person throughput. In addition, federal requirements specify minimum
operating conditions for HOV and express lanes and prescribe the use of pricing as a means of meeting
those requirements. Express lane pricing also generates revenue that can be used to support project
development, operating and maintenance costs, and other improvements.
Recommendation:
1. Optimize person throughput in the corridor while meeting debt obligations.
2. Establish toll pricing to routinely achieve free flow speeds of 60-65 mph, always exceeding
the 45 mph federal minimum requirement
Background:
A common goal of express lane projects around the country is to optimize the performance of the lanes
using pricing. The performance of express lanes can be measured in a number of ways, including person
throughput. And although not often stated as a primary goal of express lanes, revenue generation is
another measure of performance. Optimizing person throughput in express lanes is achieved by
maintaining priority service for HOVs, buses and vanpools by offering toll discounts and ensuring that the
express lanes maintain free -flow conditions for these vehicles.
Federal requirements define a degraded HOV or express lane facility as one that does not meet a minimum
average operating speed of 45 mph for 90 percent of the time over a 180-day monitoring period during
weekday peak hours. The requirements specify varying the toll charged to vehicles to bring a degraded
facility into compliance. As described in Section 19, dynamic pricing will be used to manage demand in
the Express Lanes. The pricing algorithm used to calculate the toll rates can be calibrated to ensure that
free -flow speeds of 60-65 mph are routinely achieved in the Express Lanes. Additionally, tolls can be set
to ensure that the project generates revenue that will be used to service debt obligations.
Assessment:
Optimizing person throughput is a common goal of express lane projects and is achieved by using pricing
as a mechanism to maintain priority access for vehicles carrying multiple occupants. Pricing will also be
used to ensure that the federal minimum operating requirements are met and that the Express Lanes
generate revenue necessary to service debt obligations.

3. Hours of Operation
Description:
Express lane hours of operation define when toll collection will occur. Toll collection can occur during
traditionally defined peak periods or extended peak periods (part time), or can occur 24 hours a day, 7
days a week (full-time). Under part-time operations, all passenger vehicles would be allowed to access
the Express Lanes during off-peak hours. Under full-time operations, a minimum toll rate would be
charged during off-peak hours.
Recommendation:
Charge tolls 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Background:
Express lanes hours of operation generally fall into one of the following categories:
1. Part-time operations — Toll collection occurs during defined periods of the day. When toll
collection is not in effect, the express lanes are open to all vehicles. Toll collection can occur
during defined morning and evening peak periods (e.g., 5am-9am and 3pm-7pm) or during
extended daytime hours (e.g., 5am-7pm).
2. Full time operations — Toll collection is in effect 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. During non -
peak times, the toll rate is often set to a minimum rate.
All HOV lanes in the Southern California region operate full time, with the exception of SR-14 between
Santa Clarita and Palmdale and SR-60 from Day Street to Redlands Boulevard. This is because Southern
California freeways experience sustained hours of congestion, with relatively short off-peak hours. Under
such conditions, part-time HOV operation would not be viable. Similar to the region's HOV facilities, all
current and planned express lane facilities within the SCAG region are operating or will be operating with
full-time tolling. The 91 Express Lanes in Orange County and the extension into Riverside County operate
24/7, and the I-15 Express Lanes project planned in San Bernardino County has also adopted a 24/7 policy.
Having consistent policy helps enforcement and may contribute to a better understanding and reliance
on the express lanes network whenever congestion occurs.
Assessment:
Full-time tolling on the I-15 Express Lanes is recommended to maximize efficient operation of the Express
Lanes and general purpose lanes, and to be consistent with adjoining express lane facilities on the SR 91
and the planned 1-15 Express Lanes in San Bernardino County.

4. Carpool Occupancy Requirement
Description:
The HOV occupancy definition establishes the minimum occupancy requirements for discounted and/or
free travel within express lanes. This is important because there will be different traffic and revenue
results if carpools are defined as two or more persons per vehicle (HOV-2+) or three or more persons per
vehicle (HOV-3+).
Recommendation:
Define carpools as vehicles occupied by 3 or more persons.
Background:
Under Federal requirement (23 USC § 166), HOV and express lanes
facilities must maintain a minimum speed of 45 mph. Caltrans has the
responsibility of maintaining operations for the state's HOV lanes, which
includes the authority to make operational changes (including
occupancy) provided they are compliant with federal and state
regulations. Multiple sections of California law pertain to HOV policies on
express lanes. The specific legislative authorization given to each facility
in the state typically provides that particular entity the authority to set
rates and HOV policies on the respective facilities.
RCTC's application for the 1-15 Express Lanes Project approved by the
California Transportation Commission (CTC) states that vehicles with
three or more occupants will be allowed entry into the Express Lanes at
no cost initially. The Application acknowledges that it may be necessary
to charge for HOV-3+ in the future as demand for the Express Lanes increases.

According to the 2013 CA HOV Lane Degradation Report published by Caltrans, many HOV facilities in the
Southern California region are currently experiencing various degrees of performance degradation with a
HOV-2+ minimum occupancy requirement. As the region's express lanes network expands, and demand
increases, the need to increase the minimum occupancy requirement becomes more apparent.
Currently, there are three existing and four planned (excluding this Project) express lane facilities in
southern California. The current practices for carpool occupancy policy are summarized as follows:
Existing Facilities
• Metro 1-10 ExpressLanes — HOV-3+ toll -free during peak periods; HOV-2+ toll -free all other times
• Metro 1-110 ExpressLanes — HOV-2+ toll -free
1-15 Express Lanes Project

Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRHES
• OCTA 91 Express Lanes — HOV-3+ toll -free, with the exception of eastbound PM peak period
operating with discount toll rates for HOV-3+
Planned Facilities
• OCTA 405 Express Lanes —Pending results of the Traffic and Revenue Study
• SANBAG 1-10 Express Lanes — HOV-3+ toll -free
• SANBAG 1-15 Express Lanes — HOV-3+ toll -free
• Riverside 91 Express Lanes — HOV-3+ toll -free, with the exception of eastbound PM peak period
operating with discount toll rates for HOV-3+
Assessment:
HOV-3+ is recommended as the minimum occupancy requirement for discounted travel for the 1-15
Express Lanes. This is consistent with policy recommendations in the SCAG Regional Express Lanes
Concept of Operations and the adjoining SR-91 in Orange/Riverside Counties and future 1-15 Express Lanes
in San Bernardino County.

5 — 6. Toll Interoperability
Description:
Toll interoperability refers to the ability for customers to use multiple toll facilities with a single toll
account. Currently, there are various tolling protocols used across the United States to communicate
between the in -vehicle toll transponders and roadside toll readers and only a few of the systems allow a
customer to use the same toll transponder at other facilities across state lines. There are national and
state initiatives to adopt new interoperability standards.
Recommendation:
5. Adopt the national interoperability standard for automated toll collection systems when
adopted by the toll industry.
6. Adopt the new state interoperability standard for automated toll collection systems when
adopted by the California Toll Operators Committee.
Background:
The protocol for the exchange of transponder information for toll facilities in California is specified by Title
21 of the California Code of Regulations. The transponders used by California toll agencies are commonly
referred to as Title 21 transponders. These transponders are branded as FasTrak® and can be used on any
of the California toll facilities. California is the only state currently using the Title 21 transponders.
Switchable Title 21
49301111111111111111111
WSDOT 6C Sticker
Legacy Title 21
In 2012, the federal government passed Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21sY Century, MAP-21, calling
for a national toll interoperability by 2016. The International Bridge, Tunnel, and Turnpike, Authority
(IBTTA) is the worldwide association representing toll facility owners and operators and the businesses
that that serve them. IBTTA has formed an Interoperability Committee that is working to advance the goal
of achieving national interoperability by 2016. They are in the process of selecting the transponder
protocols that will undergo further testing and analysis. The Title 21 transponders are not being
considered for the national standard.
Concurrent with the efforts of IBTTA, the California Toll Operators Committee (CTOC), which was formed
to facilitate interoperability within California, has developed a Transition Plan to replace the legacy
California protocol (referred to as "Title 21") with a newer and less expensive protocol (referred to as
"6C"). This plan proposes that all toll facilities in the state be able to recognize the 6C protocol by 2018
1-15 Express Lanes Project 10
87
1-15 Express Lanes Project
Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRHES
with full transition by 2020. The 6C protocol is also one of the final protocols being evaluated for the
national standard and CTOC is represented in the discussions regarding national interoperability.
Assessment:
The 1-15 Express Lanes will be consistent with the interoperability standards currently being assessed at
the national and state levels. In doing so, 1-15 Express Lanes customers will only have to establish a single
toll account to travel on all toll facilities in the state and, depending on the outcome of the national
interoperability discussions, may be able to use their account to travel on toll facilities across the country.

7. Project Development Costs
Description:
The 1-15 Express Lanes will require funding for project capital costs, necessary for the final design,
construction, and initial deployment of the Express Lanes.
Capital costs include all items necessary to build new lanes or
retrofit existing lanes in order to provide an Express Lane
facility, including infrastructure construction, toll collection
implementation, and equipment. The funds for capital costs
may come from a number of sources, including Riverside
County "Measure A" sales tax revenue or state and federal
grants. In addition, bonds could be issued or a federal loan
obtained for capital costs that are leveraged based on these
dedicated tax revenue sources and/or toll revenues from the actual Express Lane facility.
EXPRESS LANES
Recommendation:
Fund project development costs by current and future Measure A sales tax, toll revenue, and
state and federal grants.
Background:
Riverside County Measure A Sales Tax
Measure A is a Riverside County half -cent sales tax dedicated to
transportation. Voters approved the Measure A program in 1988, which
has raised over $1 billion for major highway and local road projects
throughout Riverside County. Voters extended Measure A in 2002,
ensuring that the program will continue to fund transportation
improvements through 2039.
Federal Funding
In addition to local funding through Measure A, there are multiple federal programs facilitated through
the FHWA that could potentially be used to fund the 1-15 Express Lanes. These programs are intended to
award funds to projects that upgrade facilities in order to reduce congestion or improve safety. These
sources could include, but are not limited to, the Surface Transportation Program, the Highway Safety
Improvement Program, Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality funds, or a loan awarded through the
Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA).
1-15 Express Lanes Project 12
89
1-15 Express Lanes Project
Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRHES
State Funding
California state funding could potentially be available through the State Transportation Improvement
Program (STIP). The CTC administers the STIP, which awards funds to eligible highway projects
programmed by county transportation agencies.
Bonds
Many express lane projects throughout the country require some level of financing or debt. A limited tax
obligation bond is issued by a government entity which is secured by a pledge of a specific tax revenue
and can be used to fund certain capital improvements. However, the ability of a priced managed lane to
collect toll revenue creates a dedicated funding source, which could be used to issue and repay a bond.
These toll revenue bonds are the most popular to be issued by toll facilities. The authorizing statute for
the 1-15 Express Lanes (Streets & Highways Code Section 149.8) permits RCTC to issue bonds to finance
the project.
Assessment:
Financing a project through the issuance of bonds or other means, allows for projects to offer the public
more immediate benefits of transportation infrastructure, while spreading the costs of that infrastructure
over the life of a project. In this way, the additional interest cost paid by the agency is outweighed by the
mobility and economic benefits of having the project available more quickly. Capital costs for the 1-15
Express Lanes are to be funded through current and future Riverside County Measure A sales tax revenues
and project toll revenues through bond and TIFIA loan financing. Specifically, the recommendation is that
sales tax revenue bonds may be issued by RCTC and repaid through Measure A sales tax revenues, while
toll revenue bonds may also be issued and a TIFIA loan executed with repayment ensured through toll
revenues collected by the 1-15 Express Lane facility. In addition, it is recommended that additional State
and Federal discretionary grant opportunities are sought to supplement project funding. RCTC's project
plan of finance is currently being developed as part of project financing activities and will be brought for
Board approval in the future.

8. Operations and Maintenance Costs
Description:
The 1-15 Express Lanes will require funding for ongoing
operation and maintenance costs associated with the
project. Toll collection and dedication to enhanced
traveler benefits make express lanes unique when
compared to other highway projects, and often require
greater resources and funding for the operation and
maintenance of these services. The cost of express lane
operations includes toll collection, standard operations,
enhanced enforcement, incident response services, and
toll system and facility maintenance. Operation and
maintenance activities require a dedicated funding
source in order to be viable, which could include local,
state, or federal revenues, in addition to actual toll revenues collected as part of the project.
Recommendation:
Fund operations, maintenance, and toll enforcement costs by toll revenue.
Background:
As with all transportation infrastructure, a dependable and dedicated source of funding is necessary for
operations and maintenance. This is especially true for express lanes, where enhanced services can be
necessary to offer reliable travel time savings to toll paying customers. Express lanes are also unique in
that the revenue collected from tolls is able to be used as a dedicated source of operation and
maintenance funding.
The following are general express lanes operations and maintenance costs:
Toll Collection Costs
Toll collection costs include all costs associated with processing tolls payments, including the labor and
materials required to manage customer accounts, perform license plate image reviews, process toll
violations and provide general customer service. In addition, the cost of distributing and managing
transponder inventory is included.
Standard Operation Costs
Standard operation includes costs associated with labor and equipment necessary to manage express lane
operations, including personnel to monitor traffic and toll operations, generate reports, public outreach,
management and oversight, etc.
1-15 Express Lanes Project 14
91
1-15 Express Lanes Project
Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRHES
Enhanced Enforcement
In order to manage express lanes demand, it is important that the vehicles using express lanes are either
paying the posted toll or meeting the HOV requirement. A thorough enforcement program including the
presence of the California Highway Patrol (CHP) is necessary to maintain motorist compliance.
Incident Response Services
In order to offer a dependable travel time savings, it is important that incident response resources be
available to remove any disabled vehicles or objects which may prevent free -flow conditions.
Toll System and Facility Maintenance
Maintenance costs associated with express lanes include the inspection, upkeep, and replacement of the
facility itself and items necessary for toll operation including roadside toll collection equipment and
infrastructure, communications infrastructure, and all other hardware and software elements.
Assessment:
It is recommended that operation and maintenance costs for the 1-15 Express Lanes be funded through
toll revenue. Under this assumption, the resources and services necessary for Express Lanes operations
will be funded from the project itself. Funding operations through project revenue will require that
Express Lane tolls are set at a rate that ensures mobility and travel time benefits to customers, while also
generating sufficient revenue to effectively operate the Express Lanes and meet debt obligations.

9. Project Repayment
Description:
As described in Section 7, sales tax and toll revenue bonds are anticipated to be issued by RCTC and a
federal TIFIA loan executed to finance the 1-15 Express Lanes development costs. Sales tax revenue bonds
are to be backed by future Measure A tax revenues and toll revenue bonds are to be backed by future
revenues generated by the Express Lanes. Therefore, funds for the repayment of these bonds will be
obtained through revenues to be generated by the Measure A sales tax and operation of the Express
Lanes.
Recommendation:
Repay Measure A sales tax bonds and toll revenue bonds with future Measure A and toll
revenue, respectively.
Background:
The authorizing statute for the 1-15 Express Lanes (Streets & Highways Code Section 149.8) permits RCTC
to issue bonds to finance the project. It is RCTC's intent to issue bonds backed by both Measure A sales
tax revenues and future toll revenues and to repay the bonds using these revenue sources.
Assessment:
Consistent with the obligations of issuing bonds, RCTC will repay bonds using revenues generated by
Measure A sales taxes and Express Lane tolls.

10. Use of Revenue
Description:
Express lanes charge tolls and generate toll revenue as a normal function of operation. The 1-15 Express
Lanes will require an expenditure plan for all revenue, outlining what activities or functions will be funded
from collected toll payments. As stated in Section 9, it is recommended that toll revenues should be used
toward repayment of bond debt issued on behalf of the project and also to fund facility operations,
maintenance, and enforcement. However, net excess revenue may remain after payments toward
operation and maintenance costs and debt service obligations. There are multiple projects and programs
which could be funded through the net excess toll revenue from the 1-15 Express Lanes.
Recommendation:
Use surplus revenue to fund Interstate 15 corridor transportation investments.
Background:
The goal of most express lane facilities is to generate enough revenue to cover basic operations and
maintenance, meet debt obligations (if applicable), as well as to fund replacement and upkeep to the
extent that adequate revenue is available. Other facilities dedicate portions of net excess revenue to fund
enhanced transit operations within the express lane facility, such as 1-15 in San Diego and 1-95 in South
Florida. Statutes for the Metro 1-110 and 1-10 ExpressLanes in Los Angeles County state that toll revenue
must first cover the costs incurred in connection with implementation/operation of the program. Metro
reinvests surplus toll revenue into the corridor through a grant program. In addition, the 91 Express Lanes
in Orange County have adopted the policy of directing net excess revenues to capital improvements within
the SR-91 corridor.
The authorizing statute for the I-15 Express Lanes (Streets & Highways Code Section 149.8) permits excess
toll revenues to be used for the following purposes:
(A) To enhance transit service designed to reduce traffic congestion on 1-15 or to expand travel
options along 1-15. Eligible expenses include transit operating costs, acquisition of transit vehicles
and transit capital improvements.
(B) To make operational or capacity improvements designed to reduce congestion or improve the
flow of traffic on 1-15. Eligible expenses include any phase of project delivery to make capital
improvements to onramps, connector roads, roadways, bridges, or other structures on 1-15.
Assessment:
The toll revenue collected as part of the 1-15 Express Lanes operations will be used primarily to fund
operation, maintenance, and enforcement costs of the facility, as well as to meet debt obligations for any
revenue bonds issued as part of the project. Any remaining net excess revenue will be used to fund
transportation improvements within the 1-15 Express Lanes corridor consistent with authorizing statute.

11. Enforcement
Description:
Express lanes require effective enforcement policies and programs to operate successfully. Enforcement
of vehicle occupancy requirements and toll payment is critical to protecting eligible vehicles' travel time
savings and safety. Visible and effective enforcement promotes fairness and maintains the integrity of the
facility to help gain acceptance among users and nonusers.
Recommendation:
Enforce 1-15 Express Lane toll violations through agreement with the California Highway Patrol
and any future state or federal toll violation laws.
Background:
Adequate and effective enforcement policies
and incident management are integral elements
to express lanes operations to ensure that the
facilities are operating at the intended level of
performance. Enforcement of vehicle
occupancy and/or toll payment requirements is
critical to protecting eligible users' travel -time
savings and safety. Visible and effective
enforcement promotes fairness and maintains
the integrity of the facility to help gain
acceptance among users and non -users.
The enforcement concept for many express lane
facilities around the country involves a combination of manual and
automated enforcement strategies.
Manual enforcement requires CHP officers to be present during the peak hours to serve as a visual
deterrent and to monitor vehicles to ensure they are complying with express lane operating policies.
Observation areas are provided at strategic locations for officers to park and monitor beacons that
illuminate when a vehicle passes through with a switchable transponder (see Section 23 of this report) set
to a high -occupancy setting. Beacon lights provide a visual cue for officers to visually inspect the vehicle
to verify whether it meets the occupancy requirement. The beacons can also be used to indicate when no
transponder or an invalid transponder was detected and can be strategically placed to support stationary
enforcement as well as enforcement by officers driving the corridor.
CHP will also be relied upon to enforce all other moving violations, including illegal crossing of the express
lanes buffer and the requirement for vehicles to have properly mounted license plates.
In addition to manual enforcement, License Plate Recognition (LPR) cameras will be located at toll points
to capture the license plates of vehicles for which no transponder was detected. If the license plate is able
1-15 Express Lanes Project
95
18
1-15 Express Lanes Project
Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRHES
to be matched to an account, then the toll amount will be deducted from the account. Otherwise, the
license plate information is sent to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to determine the address of
the registered owner for issuance of a toll violation.
In the Southern California region, HOV and express lanes enforcements are generally conducted by the
CHP in conjunction with automatic tolling systems. The four operating express lane facilities in Southern
California, Metro 1-10 ExpressLanes, Metro 1-110 ExpressLanes, OCTA 91 Express Lanes, and SANDAG's I-
15 Express Lanes are all under contract with CHP to conduct violation enforcement. These facilities also
employ beacon lights and CHP observation areas where possible.
Assessment:
Given national experience, including experience with the four express lanes operated in Southern
California, manual enforcement is a proven component of successful express lane operations. The
presence of CHP vehicles instills confidence to customers and serves as a deterrent for those that may
violate. RCTC will establish an agreement with CHP officers to enforce the 1-15 Express Lanes and provide
CHP the necessary tools such as enforcement beacon lights and access to transponder information to
effectively enforce. In addition, LPR cameras will be used to enforce the requirement for vehicles to carry
a transponder.

12 —14. Operations and Maintenance Responsibilities
Description:
Express lanes operations and maintenance responsibilities can be managed in a number of ways. These
responsibilities include the maintenance of all equipment associated with the toll system, providing
oversight of operations and incident management, and providing customer service to manage customer
accounts. Each of these responsibilities is integral to the overall performance and operation of the express
lanes. Express lane implementing agencies can use agency staff, contract staff or share responsibilities
with other agencies.
Recommendations:
12. Maintain Express Lanes and toll systems as a responsibility of RCTC.
13. Perform customer service patrol and incident management as a responsibility of RCTC in
cooperation with Caltrans and other jurisdictions.
14. Provide customer service and the account relationships as a responsibility of RCTC.
Background:
Express lane operation and maintenance functions require dedicated resources to maintain hardware and
software, monitor performance and manage customer accounts. These functions are described in more
detail below.
Toll Systems Maintenance
The maintenance of toll systems includes the inspection, upkeep, and replacement of the items necessary
for toll operations and the supporting infrastructure. Roadside toll collection equipment, communication
network components, servers and workstations are all elements of a working toll system that require
routine maintenance. Most express lane operating agencies enter into contracts with toll service
providers to not only design and construct the toll systems, but also to operate and maintain them for
some period of time. The toll system providers are required to develop maintenance tracking systems that
keep track of the maintenance requirements for all elements of the toll system. These systems send alerts
when there is an equipment malfunction, track maintenance response times, and keep track of equipment
inventory.
Performance Monitoring and Incident Management
An important component of express lane operations is the ability to monitor traffic performance in real-
time to ensure that the express lanes are maintaining optimum conditions. This is accomplished using
roadside vehicle detection equipment and closed-circuit television cameras that send real time
information to a facility where operators can monitor. Operators have the ability to override the toll
system (e.g., display a message such as "HOV ONLY") when conditions warrant and to coordinate with
1-15 Express Lanes Project 20
97
1-15 Express Lanes Project
Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRHES
Caltrans, CHP and other jurisdictions as needed. In addition, operators have the ability to dispatch tow
trucks to clear incidents.
Some express lane operators choose to co -locate their express lane
monitoring functions within a regional monitoring center and others choose
to establish a dedicated monitoring facility. An example of a regional
monitoring center is the Inland Empire Transportation Management Center
(IETMC), which serves as an intermodal traffic management facility for San
Bernardino and Riverside Counties and is staffed by both Caltrans and CHP
personnel. The IETMC opened to service in 2011 and is located in the City of
Fontana at the interchange of the 1-15 and 1-210.
Customer Service
Inland Empire Transportation
Customer service includes all of the functions related to account management, payment processing,
transponder distribution, violation processing and providing general customer support. Some of these
support activities, often referred to as "back office" activities, can take place at offsite facilities. Examples
of activities that can be performed offsite include call taking and license plate image review. However, the
location(s) of some customer service functions are ideally located in close proximity to the express lanes,
including walk-in customer service, customer call center and transponder distribution.
Assessment:
Express lane operating agencies typically procure a contractor to carry out customer service
responsibilities due to the amount of specialized systems and labor required. RCTC will contract with a toll
services provider to design, implement, operate and maintain all aspects of the 1-15 Express Lanes toll
system. The RCTC Operations Center (see Section 24) will serve as the hub of all customer, maintenance,
and operating activities.

15. Signage
Description:
The California Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (California MUTCD) provides uniform standards
and specifications for all traffic signage in California. The most recent version of the California MUTCD,
published in 2014, includes signing guidelines and requirements for express lane facilities. These
requirements are intended to standardize the way that express lanes throughout the state are signed to
make it easier for the traveling public to understand express lane operating requirements.
Recommendation:
Provide toll signage meeting the latest California Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices
standards.
Background:
The general signing requirements for all new highway projects, including express
lanes, must comply with the 2014 California MUTCD. The California MUTCD
includes requirements for different types of express lane configurations and
operating requirements. Of particular relevance to the 1-15 Express Lanes, are
those signs that depict a restricted access facility where all vehicles in the express
lanes are required to have a FasTrak° account.
Example Pricing Sign
Express lane signs included in the California MUTCD generally fall into the following categories:
• Overhead -mounted signs designating the start and end of the express lanes as well as
intermediate access points.
• Overhead -mounted pricing signs that display the toll amount to given downstream locations. In
accordance with the guidance in the MUTCD, pricing signs display the current toll to no more than
two downstream destinations. Changeable message elements will be used to indicate the toll rate
to travel to the destination shown. These signs will also specify the HOV occupancy requirement
and that a FasTrak° account is required for vehicles to use the facility.
• Median mounted and overhead signs that display the carpool occupancy requirement, the
FasTrak° account requirement and hours of operation.
Assessment:
The 1-15 Express Lanes signage will conform to the standards in the California MUTCD. The design and
implementation of the signage will be the result of several sign workshops and plan reviews that will
include Caltrans and the FHWA.

16. Express Bus Integration
Description:
Transit is an important component in express lanes. If managed through variable pricing to maintain a
minimum level of service, express lanes create efficient and reliable transit corridors compared to
previously congested freeways. Of the existing HOV and express lanes facilities in the southern California
region, most are already served by express bus services. Operating express bus service on express lanes
offers several key benefits:
• Shortens Travel Times
• Improves Travel Time Reliability
• Lowers Operating Costs
• Increases Person Throughput
• Encourages Carpooling and Transit Use
• Addresses Equity Concerns
• Builds Public Support
Recommendations:
Encourage express bus use through toll policies and Express Lane operations.
Background:
Currently, the Riverside Transit Agency (RTA) provides eight express bus
services throughout Riverside County, with one route (CommuterLink
Express 206) providing service along 1-15 between Temecula and Corona.
The CommuterLink Express— Route 206 (Temecula-Murrieta-Lake Elsinore -
North Main Corona Metrolink Station) runs daily during weekdays on
approximately 30-minute headways, and the general fare costs $3.00 each
way (free with valid Metrolink Pass). Route 206 provides connections for
commuters travelling from Riverside County to other regions via the North
Main Corona Metrolink station.

In anticipation of the 91 Express Lanes extension in Riverside County, the RTA already has two new
RapidLink express bus routes programmed for deployment in 2017. These two routes, RapidLink 200 and
205, will provide connections between Riverside and Anaheim as well as Temecula and Anaheim via the
91 Express Lanes. The proposed 1-15 Express Lanes will provide the opportunity for further expansion of
express bus services along the corridor.
Similar to express bus benefits, the 1-15 Express Lanes can provide opportunities for enhancing and
promoting carpoolinevanpooling by commuters. Currently, there are eight Caltrans Park and Ride lots
along the 1-15 corridor within Riverside County. Of the eight existing lots, three are located within the I-
15 Express Lanes Project corridor:

Specialized Transit Services
It should be noted that not only will the fixed route bus service discussed benefit from the 1-15 Express
Lanes, but also the Specialized Transportation Program funded by RCTC via Measure A funding along with
federal funding from the Job Access Reverse Commute (JARC) and New Freedom (NF) programs. These
specialized transit services (Dial -A -Ride paratransit) will most likely use the I-15 Express Lanes. In addition,
a handful of non-profit and special criteria providers that operate specialized transportation will also
benefit from using the 1-15 Express Lanes.
Physical and Policy Considerations
Many of the physical design considerations for integrating bus service are similar to express lanes and
HOV lanes, which have well -established design criteria. Besides the physical design, each express lane
project has a unique set of policies in place that influences how well transit is integrated in a particular
corridor. Establishing a set of policies that improves transit service and capacity is also often essential in
building public support for often controversial toll lane projects and helps to neutralize the perception
that Express Lanes are "Lexus Lanes" that primarily benefit those with higher incomes.
Assessment:
Encouraging transit and offering benefits for express bus service is a key component of the 1-15 Express
Lanes project. Coordination with RTA will take place during the design of the Express Lanes to ensure that
transit needs are taken into consideration.

17. Design — Facility Ingress and Egress
Description:
This policy is related to the design of access locations, where vehicles can enter and exit the 1-15 Express
Lanes. Regulating access is one of the fundamental tools to manage traffic flow in the express lanes, and
therefore, it is important to select the access points and design treatment early in the planning phase
along with the separation type to help minimize weaving conditions.
Recommendation:
Design the roadway and ingress and egress locations meeting Caltrans design standards where
feasible and practical.
Background:
Access treatments for express lane facilities fall into the following three categories:
Grade -separated direct access drop ramps Grade -separated drop ramps provide access to and from the
express lanes using dedicated grade direct access ramps. These types of ramps generally provide access
from adjacent freeways/arterials and park and ride facilities for express bus operations, and are desirable
where sufficient right-of-way and high traffic volumes in both the express lanes and general purpose lanes
warrant the need for such exclusive access. An example of a grade -separated drop ramp is the SR-91
eastbound direct connector to the southbound 1-15 and vice versa being constructed as part of RCTC's SR-
91 Corridor Improvement Project.
At -grade limited access
At -grade limited access provides access to and from the express lanes at
designated locations, typically through at -grade access openings that
serve as ingress, egress or combined ingress and egress. Physical barriers
or painted striping separates the express lanes from the adjacent general
purpose lanes between access locations. Three different approaches for
providing at -grade limited access include:
• Weave zones — provides combined ingress and egress by short
breaks to the physical barriers or striping at designated locations.
• Weave lanes — similar to weave zones, except movement is
facilitated by a change lane, which isolates the weaving from
both the express lanes and the general purpose lanes, thereby minimizing the potential for
unstable flow.

• Merge lanes — provide dedicated and separated ingress and egress (acceleration and

EXPRESS LRHES
the lane they are merging into. This design treatment further reduces the potential for unstable
flow, as conflicts are avoided in the access lane.
Continuous access
Continuous access allows vehicles to enter and exit the express lanes for the entire stretch without any
specific ingress/egress treatments. The striping that separates the express lanes from the general purpose
lanes are generally skip striped.
Assessment:
A limited access configuration is recommended for the 1-15 Express Lanes because it can reduce toll
evasion, ensure greater access control, and is consistent with the access configuration of existing Southern
California HOV and express lanes. Further, a limited access configuration is less complicated to design and
has a far lower construction cost than direct access ramps and does not require as much toll equipment
as may be required for continuous access. Vehicles will be able to access the express lanes at intermediate
access points that provide access to local exits and interchanges. Between these points, access will be
restricted to prevent weaving and improve overall mobility. A map of proposed access locations is
accessible at http://i15project.info/express_lanes_access.php.

18. Design — Number of Lanes
Description:
The number of express lanes to be implemented for a particular project is dependent upon several
variables, including traffic congestion, occupancy requirements and availability of existing right of way.
The Project Approval Document for the 1-15 Express Lanes generally includes a two lane configuration in
each direction based on traffic and engineering analysis. This configuration is intended to add capacity,
improve operations and fits within existing right of way.
Recommendation:
Construct and operate two Express Lanes in each direction where possible.
Background:
A number of criteria must be considered when evaluating the
capacity needs of an express lanes project. These include
existing and projected traffic congestion, toll discount
policies, and the cost and availability of right of way. Some
express lane projects simply convert an existing HOV lane to
an express lane, others convert an existing lane and construct
an additional lane (e.g., LA Metro 1-10 ExpressLanes), and
others construct an entirely new lane or lanes (e.g., 1-680SB
Express Lane in the Bay Area).
Two lane configuration on LA Metro 1-10
There are currently no existing HOV lanes within the 1-15 ExpressLanes
project limits. The preliminary engineering performed as part
of the project identified a need for a two lane configuration in each direction to serve future traffic
demand. This configuration fits within the existing right of way and helps to ensure that the facility will be
able to sustain a high level of service.
Assessment:
The recommendation for a two lane configuration in each direction where possible is consistent with the
project schematics and serves projected traffic demand while fitting within existing right of way.

19. Toll Pricing Method
Description:
Express lanes use pricing to manage the number of toll paying customers using the facility. Managing the
number of users allows the express lanes to meet performance goals such as those described in Section 1
and Section 2. Variable pricing is to be used to manage traffic, whereby the cost to use the express lanes
is directly related to the level of demand for the express lanes. As demand increases, raising the tolls will
help manage demand in order to maintain federal performance requirements. Conversely, the price
decreases as demand decreases to incentivize more vehicles to utilize the available capacity. Two variable
pricing methods are currently in use on facilities across the country: time -of -day pricing and dynamic
pricing.
Recommendation:
Use Dynamic Pricing to determine the toll price.
Background:
Time -of -Day Pricing
Time -of -day pricing employs a fixed toll rate
schedule with different toll rates by travel
direction, time of day and day of the week. Time -
of -day pricing is actively used on the 91 Express
Lanes and on express lanes in Denver and
Houston. Time -of -day pricing is effective when
traffic patterns remain relatively consistent over
time. For instance, if congestion reaches the
same level at the same time every Monday, then
a static price that is capable of maintaining the
desired level of traffic volume can be used for
that time period.
91 Express Lames
TOLL

With time -of -day pricing, tolls vary according to a fixed schedule, with different prices charged based on
direction of travel, day of the week, and hour of the day. The toll rates are determined based on historical
travel conditions in the corridor, and vary according to demand and congestion. The performance of
express lane facilities using time -of -day pricing requires evaluation on a regular basis to ensure that free
flow conditions are being maintained in the express lanes. If travel conditions on the express lanes
deteriorate overtime, the rates should be increased. Similarly, rates can also be lowered when the express
lanes are found to have excess capacity that is not being used effectively. On the 91 Express Lanes,
performance is monitored daily and evaluated every three months.

EXPRESS LRHES
Dynamic Pricing
Dynamic pricing employs toll rates that vary in real time
based on actual travel conditions detected in the
corridor. Dynamic pricing is actively used on most
California express lanes, including 1-10 and 1-110 (Los
Angeles), 1-15 (San Diego), 1-680 (Alameda County), and
1-880 / SR-237 (San Jose). Dynamic pricing is effective
on facilities that have a high level of variability in
congestion throughout each day and from day to day.
For instance, if a facility does not have a peak period
that is consistent from one day to the next or has a high
rate of incidents that impact traffic, dynamic pricing
allows for the adjustment of the price to match the
actual real-time traffic conditions.
IAFNINEUhi TOLL; 5 Li,
Dynamic pricing provides a real-time monitoring and response capability for express lane operations.
Dynamic pricing requires capital investment for both the algorithm and the traffic detection system and
also requires ongoing monitoring and maintenance of the pricing algorithm and traffic detection system.
Like the time -of -day pricing, dynamic pricing requires variable message signs to communicate price to
customers.
Assessment:
In order to be responsive to real-time traffic conditions that may vary from day to day, it is recommended
that the I-15 Express Lanes use dynamic pricing. Despite the higher capital costs of deployment as
compared to time -of -day pricing, dynamic pricing will be valuable to manage traffic and ensure the facility
provides reliable travel at all times. The ability to readily adjust pricing and manage demand through
dynamic pricing will allow for flexibility, particular in the critical area of overlap with the 91 Express Lanes
that use time -of -day pricing.

20. Toll Exemptions and Discounts
Description:
Toll discounts and exemptions are required by legislation, law and by agreement with project partners.
Discounts have an impact on revenue, operations, customer service center systems and enforcement. It
is important to establish toll discounts or exemptions at an early stage to allow for the evaluation of
operational impacts and for inclusion in system design.
Recommendation:
Provide toll discounts according to legislation and for operations and maintenance vehicles.
Background:
A review of project agreements and legislation suggested that the following vehicle types require
evaluation for toll discounts.
Transit
One of the primary goals of express lane facilities is to offer enhanced transit service. California Vehicle
Code defines qualifying mass transit, paratransit and vanpool vehicles, including those that are publically
or privately funded. These vehicles will be allowed to travel toll -free in the 1-15 Express Lanes at all times.
With the passage of the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (the FAST Act) on December 4, 2015,
U.S. Code was amended to enable privately -owned buses servicing the public to utilize toll facilities under
the same rates, terms and conditions as other public transportation vehicles. RCTC will establish
agreements with operators to facilitate toll -free travel at all times.
High -Occupancy Vehicles
The application for the 1-15 Express Lanes project approved by the CTC and the Federal Agreement
between RCTC, FHWA and Caltrans provide direction with regard to the tolling of HOVs. In both instances,
HOVs are defined as vehicles with three or more occupants (HOV-3+). The authorizing statute for the
Express Lanes (Streets & Highways Code Section 149.8) also specifies free travel for HOV-3+ vehicles
initially upon opening.
There is no mechanism to regulate the demand of HOV-3+ vehicles when there is a 100% toll discount. As
the HOV-3+ volume becomes an increasingly larger percentage of the total 1-15 Express Lanes traffic, it
will become increasingly difficult for the dynamic pricing algorithm to effectively manage demand and
preserve free flow operations in the 1-15 Express Lanes. Therefore, it is recommended that the speeds in
the 1-15 Express Lanes be monitored to determine when the lanes are being degraded. If the average
speed in the Express Lanes drops to 60 mph three or more times in a thirty day period after three months
of operation, the HOV-3+ discount will be reduced to 50%. The 100% discount will be in place for at least
1-15 Express Lanes Project 30

Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRNES
the first three months of operation to allow for customers to adjust to the new facility and to incentivize
use of the 1-15 Express Lanes by carpoolers.
Motorcycles
California Vehicle Code 21655.5(b) provides for free passage on preferential lanes for motorcycles.
Motorcycle toll transactions will be processed either through a transponder or by reading their license
plate.
Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEVs)
Legislation (AB 1721), enacted as California Vehicle Code Section 5205.5,
allows motorists driving ZEVs displaying a DMV-issued Clean Air Vehicle
decal to travel in express lanes with a toll -free or reduced rate toll. The
statute does not mandate the rate of reduction. The existing legislation
is set to expire January 1, 2019 ahead of the 1-15 Express Lanes planned
opening.
Similar to the tr atment of HOV 3+ vehicles, Tthe toll discount for ZEVs
will be 15% upon opening of the Express Lanesseduccd to 50% if average
speeds drop below 60 mph more than three times in a thirty day period
after three months of operation.

California Vehicle Code 23301.5 provides for toll exemption for specifically identifiable emergency
vehicles being driven while responding to or returning from an urgent or emergency call, engaged in an
urgent or emergency response, or engaging in a fire station coverage assignment directly related to an
emergency response. The common method of processing these tolls is through a "non -revenue" account
where the transaction is processed by the back office and posted to the account in order to provide a
method of monitoring usage. RCTC will establish agreements with the local emergency providers that will
outline the specific rules for these non -revenue accounts.
Maintenance and Operation Vehicles
In order to facilitate access to express lanes for the purposes of performing various maintenance tasks or
performing operational checks and testing, it is common for tolling authorities to grant toll -exemption for
vehicles being driven for these maintenance purposes. The common method of processing these tolls is
through a "non -revenue" account where the transaction is processed by the back office and posted to the
account in order to provide a method of monitoring usage.
Assessment:
In general, vehicles that are eligible to utilize HOV lanes in accordance with applicable federal or state law
will be allowed discounted access to the 1-15 Express Lanes. This includes buses (public transit and

privately operated tour buses), vanpools, motorcycles, HOV 3+ vehicles, ZEVs, emergency vehicles, law
enforcement vehicles, and operation and maintenance vehicles. The following discount policies are
recommended for each of these vehicle types:
• In-service public transit vehicles, private buses, vanpools, and motorcycles will be 100%
discounted (toll free) at all times.
• All HOV-3+ and zero -emission vehicles (ZEVs) will be 100% discounted (toll free) for the first three
months of operation. The discount will be reduced to 50% if the average speed in the Express
Lanes drops below 60 mph three or more times in a thirty day period after three months of
operation.
• Emergency, law enforcement and Express Lanes maintenance vehicles will be 100% discounted
(toll free) at all times.

21. Toll Payment Method
Description:
Electronic toll collection systems use automatic vehicle identification (AVI)
technology to toll vehicles. These AVI systems use in -vehicle transponders
and/or LPR cameras to identify vehicles for toll payment. Some facilities
require that all vehicles have a transponder as the primary means of toll
collection and use LPR cameras as a backup to capture vehicles that don't
have a transponder or that have a transponder that fails to be detected.
Other facilities allow vehicles to travel without a transponder and use LPR
cameras as the primary means of toll collection; this system is known as
pay by plate tolling.
License -plate tolling equipment
Craig F. Walker/The Denver
Post
Recommendation:
Require all vehicles to have a transponder at time of travel.
Background:
Transponder -Based Toll Collection
Electronic toll collection using transponders is a proven technology with high accuracy. The cost
associated with the systems needed to process transponder transactions is lower than systems which
allow for toll payment by license plate. In addition, as California transitions from the legacy battery -
operated transponders to the new, less expensive 6C transponders, the cost for a transponder based toll
collection system will decrease even further making transponder based toll collection a far more efficient
method of collecting tolls.
Most toll facilities that rely on transponders for toll collection also include LPR cameras to capture vehicles
without a transponder to minimize revenue leakage. The license plate images are used to associate the
transaction with a toll account when a transponder is not read or to look up the registered owner's
address for collection of the toll through a toll violation process.
As described in Section 23, HOVs are able to use switchable transponders to indicate their vehicle
occupancy status and receive the appropriate toll discount.
Pay by Plate
Pay by plate utilizes LPR cameras and Optical Character Recognition technology to identify a vehicle's
license plate number. The automatically generated plate number is independently verified and validated
by toll operators in the customer service center, thereby increasing operational costs per toll transaction.
This technology is currently being used on Transportation Corridor Agencies (TCA) toll facilities in Orange
County, on all toll facilities in the Denver Metro Area (including express lanes), all Dallas / Ft. Worth area
toll facilities (including express lanes), Loop 375 express lanes in El Paso, and on the SR-520 and 1-405
1-15 Express Lanes Project 33
110
1-15 Express Lanes Project
Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRHES
express lanes in the Seattle area. The license plate numbers are collected and the name and addresses of
the registered users are requested from the state DMV, from which bills for all the tolls incurred during a
specific period are aggregated and sent out to collect payment. Pay by plate tolling not only requires more
processing costs, but it results in more revenue loss due to unidentifiable plates and registered owners
and lengthens the amount of time to collect toll revenue.
In a pay by plate scenario, HOVs are required to register their license plate in advance of making a trip so
the toll system can apply the appropriate toll discount.
Assessment:
Because toll payment by transponder is a proven, accurate solution with a lower transaction cost as
compared to pay by plate, it is recommended that RCTC open the 1-15 Express Lanes with a requirement
that all vehicles have a transponder. Opening with a transponder requirement will encourage motorists
to open an account and obtain a transponder. LPR cameras will be used to enforce this requirement and
identify vehicles that don't carry a transponder. This policy also allows HOVs to declare their status using
a switchable transponder as described in Section 23.

22. Mobile Interface
Description:
Easy access to express lanes information is important to gain customer understanding and compliance.
Most toll facilities across the country maintain a website where users can find information about the toll
policies and access account information and many of these websites are accessible in a mobile format. In
addition, some facilities provide mobile applications that allow users to review recent toll activity and pay
tolls without a transponder.
Recommendation:
Implement Mobile Web for FasTrak® customers, but defer the Mobile Toll Payment Application.
Background:
Toll facilities across the country provide different mobile interfaces for customers as described below.
Mobile Website
Many websites currently include desktop and mobile versions. The mobile versions are intended to be
viewed from a mobile device such as a smartphone or tablet and typically include the same functionality
as the desktop site. A mobile website for express lanes could allow customers to access general express
lane information (operating policies, requirements for use, etc.) and to access account information.
Mobile Toll Payment Application
Depending upon business rules, some toll facilities allow users to user mobile
devices to pay tolls without the use of a transponder. For example, the TCA facilities
in Southern California allow users to pay tolls from a mobile application within five
days before or after a trip is made.
Transportation
Corridor Agency
Mobile Application
Interface
Assessment:
RCTC will require all users to carry a transponder (see Section 21), which is inconsistent with the idea of
allowing users to pay tolls using a mobile application. Therefore, a Mobile Payment Application will not
be deployed. However, users will have access to a mobile website to access Express Lanes information
and to make changes or payments to their account.

23. High Occupancy Vehicle Declaration Options
Description:
The primary function of HOV declaration is two -fold: 1) provide a mechanism to easily separate toll payers
from those eligible to receive toll discounts, and 2) enable the efficient and effective enforcement of
occupancy violations. Two methods of occupancy declaration were considered: the use of self -declaration
lanes and switchable transponders.
Recommendation:
Identify HOV-3+ carpool customers via a switchable transponder.
Background:
There are different ways that express lanes can require toll -paying and toll -free vehicles to use the express
lanes. In Southern California, the carpool declaration options generally fall under the "declaration lane"
method (as used by the OCTA 91 Express Lanes and the Riverside 91 Express Lanes currently under
construction), and the switchable transponder method (as deployed on the 1-110 and 1-10 ExpressLanes
in Los Angeles County).
Self -Declaration Lanes
Many first generation express lanes involved conversion of
pre-existing, barrier -separated HOV lanes with adequate
right-of-way for positive separation between toll payers and
carpoolers. Known as the "declaration lane" option, this was
the mechanism designed and implemented on SR-91 in
Orange County, the first express lanes facility which opened in
1995. It will also be utilized on the 91 Express Lanes that are
under construction in Riverside County. Declaration lane
solutions require eligible carpools to diverge from the main
travel lanes to a separated lane at toll zones. These vehicles
are charged an appropriate discounted or zero -value toll, and

via visual scan. Vehicles without a transponder are considered violators — the same as if they traveled
through the main toll lanes without a transponder.
Switchable Transponders
This method provides a technological method for declaring carpool status on the express lanes through a
"switchable" transponder, as implemented on 1-10 and 1-110 in Los Angeles. Switchable transponders
allow the customer to self -declare their occupancy status on the transponder itself. The Los Angeles
transponder transmits multiple identifications (IDs), in order to associate the correct toll for a vehicle
1-15 Express Lanes Project 36
113
1-15 Express Lanes Project
Toll Policy Report
EXPRESS LRHES
based upon its occupancy status. These IDs can be associated with a single
occupancy vehicle, HOV-2, and HOV-3+ setting directly on the transponder. For
compliant HOVs, the user declares the vehicle's status on the transponder
(e.g., sliding the switch to "HOV2" or "HOV3+"), and the appropriate toll rate
would be collected. If the same vehicle is being operated without the required
occupancy, it would be required to declare appropriately on the transponder
and the correct toll would be collected. If no transponder is present (or if it is
malfunctioning), LPR (mounted on gantries or median poles) would be used to
collect full toll payment from the user (regardless of occupancy status).
Example Switchable
Transponder
Assessment:
It is recommended that the 1-15 Express Lanes use switchable transponders for declaring occupancy.
Switchable transponders have been successfully deployed on other toll facilities in the state and
nationally. Also, as compared to declaration lanes, switchable transponders are more inexpensive to
deploy and do not require drivers to make weaving maneuvers while in the Express Lanes, which may
improve operational efficiency. With the enforcement strategy described in Section 11, CHP will have the
tools necessary to enforce the proper use of the switchable transponder so that violation rates can be
kept to a minimum.

24. Express Lane Operations Facility
Description:
The 1-15 Express Lanes will require a facility to house various components of the operations, including a
walk-in customer service center, customer call center, back office operations, image processing, finance
and administration, system administration and maintenance and traffic management center. RCTC will
provide the facility and the toll systems provider will supply the equipment, systems and staff to perform
the services.
Recommendation:
Locate the call center, customer service center and traffic management center and
administration in close proximity to the Express Lanes.
Background:
As described in Sections 12-14, RCTC will have the responsibility for 1-15 Express Lanes maintenance,
traffic management and customer service functions. These functions would ideally be located in a single
facility to centralize 1-15 Express Lanes operations and create synergies associated with co -located
services.
Four toll agencies operate in Southern California and each of them has a facility or facilities which house
the toll operations functions. Toll programs across the nation have experimented with remote staff
working from a contractor owned or sub -contracted facility. While this model has been successful for
some, it has the potential to degrade service, complicate supervisory functions and prohibit the synergy
gained from co -location of services.
The 91 Express Lanes toll operations staff is
being provided under a joint agreement with
OCTA. The 91 Express Lanes call center and walk
in staff are located at a leased facility near SR-91
and McKinley Street in the city of Corona. The
other toll operation services are located in a
leased facility near SR-91 and Weir Canyon Road
in the city of Anaheim. RCTC's agreement with
OCTA to share toll operation services expires in
June of 2021. RCTC is currently procuring a toll
operator for the 1-15 Express Lanes which will require
operations staff, equipment and walk-in customer service location.

Assessment:
1-15 Express Lanes operations and maintenance are the responsibility of RCTC. To ensure that the goals
for the 1-15 Express Lanes are met, RCTC will be best served by co -locating the required services in a facility
in close proximity to the 1-15 Express Lanes. The 91 Express Lanes have set the precedent for local
operations and customer service. Therefore, it is recommended that the customer service, traffic
management and other administrative functions be located in the local area adjacent to the 1-15 corridor,
with a specific site to be determined. This facility will be referred to as the RCTC Operations Center, or
