KCPQ looks at Puget Sound HOT lanes, which are “a very effective tool in our toolbox,” a WSDOT spokesperson says. “On average, during peak times you can save 13 minutes for $2.50 on I-405’s Express Toll Lanes between Bellevue and Lynnwood, according to WSDOT. On SR 167, you can save about six minutes for $2.16 in HOT lanes between Auburn and Renton.”
