(FOX40)Caltrans considers toll lanes to free up freeway congestion near Elk Grove
加州交通运输局考虑设立收费公路，以缓解埃尔克格罗夫附近的高速公路拥堵
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KTXL) — Caltrans is looking at perhaps charging motorists to use express lanes as it continues to work on easing freeway congestion on Highway 50 and Interstate 5 near Elk Grove.
加州萨克拉门托(KTXL)——加州交通运输公司正在考虑对使用快速车道的驾车者收费，以继续缓解埃尔克格罗夫附近50号高速公路和5号州际公路的拥堵。
Toll lanes are unpopular with drivers, but there’s a reason why they are always in the conversation when Caltrans looks at reducing traffic bottlenecks.
收费车道不受司机欢迎，但当加州交通局考虑减少交通堵塞时，收费车道还是很必要的。
The traffic tie-up between the county line north of the Sacramento International Airport and downtown Sacramento ranks high on the list of commute-hour bottlenecks in the region.
萨克拉门托国际机场以北的郡际线和萨克拉门托市中心之间的交通拥堵是该地区通勤时间最拥堵的地方之一。
A key factor are vehicles with one person in them.
一个关键因素是每个车辆只承载一位人。
“We have so many single-occupant vehicles that exist, and we’re trying to change people’s habits and to give them options,” said Caltrans District 3 spokesperson Dennis Keaton.
加州交通运输局第三区发言人丹尼斯·基顿说:“我们现有的单人驾驶车辆太多了，我们正努力改变人们的习惯，给他们提供选择。”
One of the half dozen options for managed lanes include placing a toll on drivers who have two or fewer people on board.
有多种备选方案，其中一个方案是对载有两名或两名以下乘客的司机收费。
But there are other options on the table: stand commuter lanes, lanes reserved for busses and mass transit vehicles, commercial traffic-only lanes, or a combination of those.
但也有其他可供选择的方案:设通勤车道、公交和公共交通车辆专用车道、商业交通专用车道，或者两者兼而有之。
Traffic has eased a bit during the pandemic while many people are still working from home, but north Natomas is the city’s fastest growing neighborhood. A huge industrial park near the airport is also expected to increase truck traffic, which is already an issue up and down Interstate 5.
疫情期间，交通有所缓解，许多人仍在家里工作，但北纳托马斯是该市增长最快的社区。机场附近的一个大型工业园区预计也将增加卡车交通，这已经是5号州际公路上的一个问题。
Over the past half-a-dozen years, traffic on the corridor has doubled.
在过去的6年里，这条公路的交通量翻了一番。
“This whole COVID environment that we’re in at some point in time is going to change; it’s going to go back to where those numbers used to be,” Keaton told FOX40.
“我们所处的整个COVID - 19环境在某个时间点上将会改变;这里的交通还是会回到过去拥挤的状态”基顿告诉FOX40。
Caltrans has already held a public input meeting on design options and plans to hold more.
加州交通局已经就设计方案举行了一次公众意见会议，并计划举行更多的会议。
There’s plenty of time left for public input, as the final design approval is not expected for another three years.
还有足够的时间让公众参与进来，因为最终的设计审批预计还需要三年时间。
Toll lanes have been an option for several other freeway improvement projects but has yet to be used on any local freeway traffic-easing project.
收费车道一直是其他几个高速公路改善项目的选择，但尚未用于任何当地高速公路交通的减缓堵塞项目。
