Traffic on the Capital Beltway Express Lanes has steadily increased since they opened last November, and the average cost to drivers is increasing, as well.
On a typical workday, about 26,294 cars travel in the lanes, according to a quarterly report released Wednesday by Transurban, the private firm that built and runs the lanes. That’s about 3,000 more daily trips than the company reported during the project’s first six weeks of operation late last year.
