Highway advisory radio system test project

Description

A low power FM radio broadcast transmitter was installed along Hwy 43 near Valleyview in December 1998, to demonstrate how a Highway Advisory Radio system could aid in warning travellers of inclement road and weather conditions as well as construction or maintenance activities. The tested system had a range of 8 km. The local maintenance contractor provided the personnel to record and update the messages.
