. However, the flex lanes will open, as needed, to whichever direction has the heaviest traffic. The flex lanes will be operational seven days a week.To maintain safety for all drivers, the flex lanes will be separated from the existing southbound lanes by a concrete barrier. Vehicles will use new crossover lanes to access the flex lanes. The two flex lanes will allow traffic to move either northbound or southbound, depending on the greatest need.
A specialized, automated net barrier and swing gate system at both ends of the flex lanes will be used to prevent vehicles from entering the flex lanes when traffic is flowing in the opposite direction. When the flex lanes are closed, the swing gates will be extended and the net barrier will be in the down position, preventing vehicles from entering the flex lanes from the wrong direction.
The ADOT Traffic Operations Center will control the gates and net barriers remotely and will monitor the flex lanes with cameras placed throughout the eight-mile flex lane corridor. In addition, dynamic overhead guide signs will alert drivers whether the flex lanes are open or closed in the direction they are traveling.
