Dynamic lanes use overhead signs and on road lights to change the direction of centre lanes at peak times to improve traffic flow.
The overhead signals will switch on this Monday.
But the lanes will stay the same for one week to give commuters time to get used to following the overhead signals.
The dynamic lanes will go live for the first time on November 9 between 3.30pm and 7pm on week days.
Do you approve of the new design?
Will it enhance traffic flow or cause confusion for motorists?

A report to Auckland Transport's (AT) board reveals it has misgivings about the planned redevelopment of Drury, which is likely to see the population soar in the next 30 years.
The paper said it is reviewing the private plan change proposals and what they entail for its funding of transport infrastructure.
Oyster Capital, Fulton Hogan and Kiwi Property are seeking to rezone about 330 hectares of land in the Drury East area from future urban to a mix of residential, business and open space zones.
A fourth smaller private plan change to rezone 33.7 hectares for mixed use housing by Karaka and Drury Consultant Limited was added to the public notification by council officers.
The AT report describes the changes as 'out of sequence' with the Auckland Plan 2050's Development Strategy and the Council's Future Urban Land Supply Strategy.
It states: “If these plan changes are approved by the council, there will be an expectation that the necessary transport infrastructure will be provided by AT to align with development demands.
“However, there is currently no funding allocated for these areas and overall funding over the next decade is under pressure. AT is working with council and government to identify potential funding and financing options, but it is not clear that will provide a timely solution.”
The paper says it would need to consider the area’s transport infrastructure requirements and how it could provide them, as well as how to align the public works with the staging and sequencing of the development.

Police Eagle helicopter crew were talking on camera about water safety when they were called to a real rescue on the Manukau Harbour.
The officers were starring in a video about dangers at sea ahead of Labour Weekend.
It took them a moment to realise the call about a kayaker in trouble was real- rather than a stitch up.
They stopped filming and rushed to the harbour after the alarm was raised about 3.20 pm on October 20.
Helicopter crew soon spotted the kayaker, who was plucked to safety by the Coastguard.
The kayaker was reported to be safe and well.

Auckland uni students have spoken out against on-campus exams this year as their overseas counterparts will be able to check notes while they will not be able to.
Those international and domestic students remaining in New Zealand will be completing their exams under supervised conditions. A university email obtained by Stuff showed that overseas students will also be given a 30 minute grace period, in case of any technical faults, with this time able to be used towards the final exam.
Do you think this is fair?
