After that less congested than other parallel routes. time, the lanes become state-operated. Since the study began two years ago, approxi­ mately 25 Cal Poly students have helped assess the impact of the toll lanes and determine if this travel option would be a viable alternative elsewhere for commuters and investors alike. Report conclusions will appear this December. Initial findings suggest the toll lanes are a suc­ cess, with 25,000 to 30,000 cars clocked each week­ day. The increased traffiC capaCity from adding the four lanes has greatly reduced peak-period conges­ tion on the adjacent public freeway.

our years after Mike Alam (PE '73, MS PE (81) decided to turn his biking hobby into a business, Alamo Bicycle Touring is a thriving company. Alamo believes the help he received from the College of Business's Small Business Institute (SBI) Program made his efforts successful. In return, he has proVided hands-on business experiences for numerous students. The SBI Program links finance, marketing, and accounting students with small businesses needing planning and analysis assistance. Started at Cal Poly in 1974 by Professor Emeritus Eugene O'Connor, the program is cur­ rently under the direction of Finance Professor Alan Weatherford. "Our students are able to complete their senior projects by putting their classroom knowledge and skills to work," Weatherford says. "This is often the students' first exposure to the real world and to the difficulty of run­ ning your own business. At the same time, small businesses get quality consulting services they might not oth­ erwise be able to afford." With 9S percent of small businesses failing because of poor management, getting the right advice - from marketing surveys to business plans to product development - can make a big difference. "Knowing the SBI Program was available encouraged me to take the chance with my own business," Alamo says. He and his wife Lynda (HE '73) had, over the years, gone on bicycle tours through 2S states and four coun­ tries for their own pleasure. But going into the tour business was a new challenge. They were now arranging 3S tours a year in different locales from San Francisco to Catalina Island for up to 30 people each. "When you own your own sma I business, you get up in the morning, start answering the phone, and don't have a lot of time to evaluate what you're doing," Alamo says. One of the several stud­ ies students did was an analysis of the company's phone system. "This sounds like a simple issue until you r alize we have an 800 number, regul r num­ ber, a fax machine, camp ter modems, cell phones, and pagers.
