 Sep 05 - CSC Releases Fastrak Building Designer v6.1, 3D+ v7.1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
This is evidenced by the fact that this technology has been with us, in one form or another, for over ten years and the software solutions available have not fitted the users' needs and therefore have not been adopted.
CSC’s latest integration tools within Fastrak Building Designer (V6.1) and 3D+ (V7.1) have been developed specifically with the flexibility to allow engineers and technicians to choose a design and CAD process that best suits their needs.
For example, you may wish the design process to start with the engineer building a Fastrak design model, typically a tool with which he is already familiar, safe in the knowledge that this data can be re-used intelligently by integrating with the technician's 3D+ AutoCAD model.

 BAY AREA / FasTrak on the wrong track? / Some Bay Bridge commuters feeling left out and ticked off
FasTrak may offer drivers a slight advantage: access to dedicated lanes that flow faster, and the ability to hand over the $3 electronically, without stopping.
Licwinko, executive director of the San Francisco Medical Society, is among the tens of thousands of daily commuters who approach the east side of the bridge from Interstate 880, a north-south freeway that deposits drivers on the right-hand side of the 21-lane Bay Bridge toll plaza.
Caltrans officials concluded that while that may have been ideal for I- 880 drivers with FasTrak transponders on their windshields, it would have created morning-long backups among the I-880 drivers without FasTrak who would have had to merge into the unrestricted commute lanes nearer the middle.

 SignOnSanDiego.com > News > North County -- Increase in fees for FasTrak proposed
SANDAG hopes to restore revenue lost because of a 30 percent decline in average weekday FasTrak traffic over the past two years, said Linda Culp, a senior transportation planner.
FasTrak was inaugurated in 1996 as a way to make money from extra space in the car-pool lanes, with per-trip tolls that automatically rise as traffic in the express lanes increases.
A report to the committee said FasTrak use plummeted after the completion of state Route 56 in July 2004, which made it easier for motorists to get to I-5.

 SignOnSanDiego.com > News > North County -- Boost in FasTrak fees rejected by transportation board
SAN DIEGO – Elected officials on Friday rejected a proposed increase in FasTrak fees for solo commuters using the high-occupancy lanes on Interstate 15, saying the planned revenue-boosting move would be counterproductive.
But in the meantime about 430 FasTrak customers, responding in calls, letters and e-mail to a notice sent to 19,325 account holders, denounced one or both of the proposed moves.
That move was seen as a way to compensate for the association's cost of maintaining the accounts and discourage motorists who obtain the free transponders for use in other counties.

 FasTrak changes in effect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Two new FasTrak lanes opened on the Bay Bridge on Sunday are designed to speed up traffic but they will likely cause headaches for commuters today as drivers get used to the change.
Adding more FasTrak lanes will allow the bridge to cut down on toll collectors and save money, Weiss said, but more importantly, it will improve the traffic flow and allow the metering lights to be used less.
He said that casual weekend users who don't think they use the bridge enough to get FasTrak might even be convinced that they should sign up once they see the reduced cash-pay lanes.
