Project - GEORGIA: I-75 South HOT/Truck-Only Toll (TOT) Study in Atlanta

In 2004, Georgia State Road and Tollway Authority (SRTA) was awarded $400,000 to study implementing HOV/bus rapid transit (BRT) in the I-75 corridor north of Atlanta. Building upon that study, this project examined the feasibility of incorporating high occupancy toll (HOT) and truck-only tolls (TOT) in combination with other strategies on I-75 south of Atlanta from I-285 to SR-16 to manage travel and optimize use of the facility. The I-75 facility is ranked among Atlanta's six most congested facilities. The proposal analyzed elements to improve the travel demand model to address pricing of truck travel, and to conduct market research and other activities. At this time it is not yet clear whether the project will lead to implementation of value pricing concepts on I-75 corridor.
