Two managed lane schemes, the high occupancy vehicle lane (HOV) and the movable lane operations, were analyzed to determine their suitability as a sustainable highway operation. VISSIM, a microscopic traffic simulation program, was used for this study, and parameters representing driver behavior in the car following model were calibrated according to a macroscopic speed and flow relationship based on measured data. The analysis results showed that bus travel speed was improved in the HOV operation, while movable lane operation also considerably improved car travel speed.
