Later this year, express toll lanes will open on I-405 between Bellevue and Lynnwood. I-405 express toll lanes let drivers choose to travel faster by paying a toll to access the HOV lanes. Toll rates will adjust depending on traffic, and drivers will pay the rate they see upon entering the lanes. Tolls can be paid with the current Good To Go! pass or by mail at a higher rate. To use express toll lanes free, carpool drivers will need the new Good To Go! <\/i>Flex Pass, set to HOV mode.<\/p>\n
The Flex Pass is a unique Good To Go!<\/i> pass because it has two modes: \u201cHOV\u201d and \u201cTOLL.\u201d To use the Interstate 405 express toll lanes<\/a>\u00a0for free, carpoolers will need to activate the new Flex Pass on a Good To Go! <\/i>account, then set the pass to HOV mode. The Flex Pass can also be set to TOLL mode when using the lanes as a non-HOV.<\/p>\n With the help of RideshareOnline.com<\/a>, WSDOT will give away Flex Passes to drivers who will regularly carpool on I-405 between Bellevue and Lynnwood. Drivers will need to register on RideshareOnline.com, or another partnering network, On the Move Bellevue<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Kirkland Green Trip<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Communities in Motion<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Curb the Congestion<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Wheel Options<\/span><\/a> and fill out a survey to determine if they qualify to receive a free Flex Pass.<\/p>\n If drivers don\u2019t qualify for a free Flex Pass, they can still purchase one.
