| 摘要： | In 2012 and 2014, the express lanes operator delivered the 495 and 95 Express Lanes projects in Northern Virginia, which Transur-ban says have since helped save 7 million customers a cumulative 13 million hours on their travel. The initial segment of the 95 Express Lanes is a 31-mile segment between Springfield and Garrisonville, Virginia. Despite the network's success, it failed to connect into Washington, D.C. to the north or to Stafford County, Virginia to the south, which is considered the fastest growing suburban area to the nation's capital. The solution to connect to the metro D.C. area would become what is now known as the 395 Express Lanes. This $475 million project, which began in August 2017 and opened to traffic in November 2019, is an 8-mile extension of the 95 Express Lanes north from Springfield, Virginia into D.C. The project expanded and converted the existing I-395 high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) system from two HOV lanes to three high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes, merging seamlessly with the existing 95 Express Lanes. |
