Elmira, thank you for understanding and working together.

I noticed another issue with your change. Shortening the motor_vehicle:conditional key as you did may have been better for clarity, but I realized that the new value of the key results in single-occupant vehicles no longer being denied access during the HOV-exclusive hours of Mo-Fr 06:30-08:00,16:30-18:00. The value of this tag should be motor_vehicle:conditional=yes @ (Mo-Fr 05:00-06:30,08:00-11:00,13:00-16:30,18:00-20:00; PH off). hov=* is considered a subset of motor_vehicle=* and overrides the value inherited from motor_vehicle:conditional for just HOVs and just for the times specified in hov:conditional, and does not imply anything about non-HOV vehicles, so the restriction against motor_vehicles must be explicitly stated in the motor_vehicle tag.

Also, hov:conditional must be modified to say hov:conditional=designated @ (Mo-Fr 06:30-08:00,16:30-18:00; PH off). Without PH off, the tag would mean that hov vehicles are allowed during Mo-Fr 06:30-08:00,16:30-18:00, even during holidays when the lane is completely closed.

I imagine the express lanes for I-45 and I-69/US 59 need similar changes to what we discussed for US 290. Thanks for your continued diligence.
