What type of pavement marking indicates reversible lanes?

Reversible lanes change direction to handle varying traffic flow, so pavement markings use color and patterns that signal this flexibility. Yellow lines indicate opposing directions, and when the lines are double and dashed, it shows that lane directions can be switched as allowed by signs or signals. Seeing two dashed yellow lines means you may cross the line to move into the adjacent lane when the current lane configuration permits. The other markings don’t signal reversible usage: a solid yellow line means no crossing, double solid white lines separate lanes moving in the same direction with no crossing, and a single dashed white line indicates crossing is allowed in the same-direction traffic, not for reversing direction.
