I-580 Express Lanes on the Horizon
From the Alameda County Transportation Commission
FasTrak or FasTrak Flex required for all users 

Have you driven on I-580 through the Tri-Valley lately? If so, you have no doubt seen the express lane construction rapidly progressing throughout this 14-mile corridor. Express lanes are specially-designated carpool/high-occupancy vehicle lanes that give solo drivers the choice to pay a toll to use the lane, when there is excess capacity. Carpoolers and all vehicles eligible to access HOV lanes will use the lanes at no cost, provided they carry a new FasTrak Flex® toll tag, and solo drivers will have the choice to pay a fee to use the lanes by using their FasTrak or FasTrak Flex toll tag.
