Abstract
A COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM has been designed to meet the special requirements of modern toll road operations simply, and within reasonable costs. It was installed for the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority and provides communications between turnpike buildings and vehicles operating anywhere along the toll road right-of-way. By using microwave to link each of the seven vhf base stations with maintenance centers, police barracks and administration headquarters, the desired flexibility has been achieved. Fig. 1 is a map of the toll road showing the location of microwave stations and their interconnections.
