 10.10  restricted to high-occupancy vehicles 
 10.11  only.  The commissioner shall determine 
 10.12  a time during which such use shall be

 10.16  contract with an independent consultant 
 10.17  to study the effects of opening the 
 10.18  lanes to all vehicles on traffic flow, 
 10.19  traffic congestion, transit and 
 10.20  high-occupancy vehicle use, and highway 
 10.21  safety on interstate highways No. 394 
 10.22  and No. 35W and other affected 
 10.23  highways.  The commissioner shall 
 10.24  report to the legislature on the

 10.29  to the state or significant delay to a 
 10.30  state or local transportation project 
 10.31  financed partly with federal funds.
