What to Do

Read the vehicle symbols, days, hours and lane arrow before using the lane.

A Detail to Remember

A diamond is the reserved-lane marker. The adjacent symbols tell you whether that reservation concerns buses, taxis, bicycles or qualifying carpools.

Understanding Lane Use Signs

Lane-use signs work with the road markings. Match the arrow or symbol to your lane before the decision point, and choose a safe route if you cannot change lanes in time.
