What are the 95 Express Lanes
The 95 Express Lanes will provide a faster, more predictable trip for drivers, carpoolers and transit riders on the heavily congested I-95 corridor.

The 95 Express Lanes are high occupancy toll (HOT) lanes which means high occupancy vehicles (HOV-3+) such as carpools, vans and buses will have free access to the lanes. If you have fewer than three people in your car, you can pay a toll to use the lanes.

Whether you carpool, drive or ride a bus, the 95 Express Lanes will provide you with new travel choices and congestion relief.

Improving the 95 Corridor
Benefits Include:
  • Addition of a new HOV lane to help manage congestion on I-95
  • Extension of HOV lanes to
    Stafford County
  • Expanded bus service and
    Park & Rides
  • New option to pay a toll when you need to get to your destination
    on time
The 95 Express Lanes will be 29 miles of HOV/Express Lanes
on I-95 from Garrisonville Road in Stafford County to the
vicinity of Edsall Road on I-395 in Fairfax County.
  • Expanded, regional HOV/transit network that will connect the HOV lanes on I-95 with the new 495 Express Lanes
  • Improved HOV system performance – that means relief from traffic backups, faster, more predictable travel times and fewer violators
  • New access points to connect the HOV lanes to Virginia-based destinations, including Tysons Corner and major military sites
  • Significant boost to the economy, job creation and opportunities for the region's small businesses
