The 95 Express reflects a growing national trend where urban areas are converting High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes into HOT (High Occupancy Toll) facilities. The concept has been very successful in other metropolitan areas throughout the country including:

91 Express Lanes: http://www.91expresslanes.com
91 Express Lanes is a four-lane, 10-mile toll road built in the median of California's Riverside Freeway (State Route 91) between the Orange/Riverside County line and the Costa Mesa Freeway (State Route 55).

I-25 Express: http://www.dot.state.co.us/cte/expresslanes.cfm
These Express Lanes include seven miles of the I-25 HOV lanes between downtown Denver and US 36.

I-394 MnPASS Express Lanes: http://www.mnpass.org
MnPASS Express Lanes on I-394 opened in May 2005 between downtown Minneapolis and the western suburbs.
