Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (Pennsylvania)

Last Updated: June 3, 2023, 6:38 pm

Exisiting VHF operations are for maintenance, towing & interop with local FD & EMS agencies.
As of 2022, PTC is working to migrate their voice comms over to an L3Harris BeOn LTE PTT system with FirstNet & Verizon.
This process will take at least 1-2 years to complete. VHF operations will be maintained for the mountain tunnels.

PSP Troop T units have migrated to the PA-STARNet P25 system and are encrypted.
