TEXAS: Influencing Travel Behavior, Sensitivity to Environmental Justice, and Use of Innovative Technology

The Texas Department of Transportation and North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) conducted a study to determine which types of congestion pricing incentives and programs on IH-30/Tom Landry Highway would most encourage drivers to seek alternatives to driving alone or outside of peak periods. Smart card technology tracked subscribers' managed lanes use, and awarded incentives based on how they choose to use the managed lanes. The study also included an equity component to explore the potential impacts managed lanes have on low-income travelers.
