The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) has operated 10 miles of the 91 Express Lanes since 2003, when OCTA purchased the formerly private roadway in the median of State Route 91 (SR-91) to remove non-compete provisions and allow transportation improvements throughout the SR-91 corridor. An additional eight miles, operated by the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC), opened in March 2017.
