Express Lanes on U.S. Highway 101 from the Santa Clara County line to Whipple Avenue in Redwood City will officially open on Friday, Feb. 11.
The lanes will operate from 5 a.m. to 8 p.m. weekdays. Solo drivers must have a standard FasTrak or FasTrak Flex toll tag to pay tolls to use the lane. Carpools, vanpools and motorcycles must have a FasTrak Flex toll tag to travel toll free or at a discount. Carpools is defined as having three or more people.
Eligible clean air vehicles can pay half-price tolls but must have a FasTrak CAV tag (apply for one at getfastrak.com).
Phase 2 of the Highway 101 Express Lane project, set to open later this year, will stretch from Whipple Avenue north to Highway 380.
