		<description><![CDATA[People who take car pools across seven Bay Area bridges may be in for an unpleasant change next year: the end of free rides for car pools during rush-hour periods. And on the Bay Bridge, regular drivers not in car pools also may in for a shock: higher tolls during peak commute periods than at other times. Proposed [...]]]></description>

Would paying a toll to use an express lane seem less painful if you knew it was helping ease freeway traffic congestion for the masses?. Bay Area residents are getting closer to finding out. A plan to create an 800-mile network of express lanes open to carpools for free [...]]]></description>

There was Spare the Air, which refused to be discredited as it died with a &#8220;yee-ha!&#8221; yesterday, racking up nearly 400,000 BART rides in one day, which happened to be the day after I blogged about what a [...]]]></description>
