Caltrans is considering a new express lane on Interstate 80 between Davis and Sacramento.
The proposed lane would stretch for 17 miles on the freeway through Yolo County. Motorists would have to pay a toll to use it.
Caltrans said that stretch of freeway is one of the most congested corridors in California and a toll lane could help alleviate traffic.
The agency held an information session Tuesday so people could see renderings of the proposed project and ask questions.
