Another public policy strategy for reducing congestion can focus on introducing HOT lane networks on LA’s freeways. Here, the HOT lanes allow single-occupant vehicles (SOVs) and carpool (Bacchi, 2009: 32). As such, solo drivers will be taxed with a toll varying on the demand to ensure that there is always a free flow on the lanes. On the other hand, carpool relies on adopted policies (Knill and Tosun, 2012: 47-48). For instance, free travels reduced or full toll pay. Therefore, HOT lanes guarantee several significant benefits, for example, providing valuable opportunities for paying reliable and faster travel trip times. For instance, today care, the airport, or doctor appointment does meet the cases. Moreover, evidence from numerous HOT lanes has shown that the group income drivers prefer using the option. When it maintains a free travel flow, the HOT lanes carry more vehicles than a congested open lane per hour. Therefore, improving the freeway capacity minus adding more or less is important. Additionally, the buses are benefit by using HOT lanes hence improving the regional transit services. In LA, the severe congestion on most highways is enough motivation to introduce an HOT lane networks instead of stand-alone applications. Nonetheless, within LA, two implementation obstacles should be overcome. To begin with, most freeways lack high-occupancy-vehicle lanes (HOV) that can be converted to the HOT lanes (Marletto and Mameli, 2012: 17). Secondly, most of the HOV lanes existing are operating at full or near capacity during peak hours. As a result, there will be minimal space to exchange for the SOVs. However, developing a full HOT lane network in LA is important as long as two options are considered. First, the current general-purpose lanes are converted to HOT lanes and secondly, there is an increasing need for passengers in the lanes.
