PennDOT, State Officials Celebrate Southeastern Regional Traffic Management Center Grand Opening in Upper Merion Township

Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) District 6 Executive Louis Belmonte was joined by Pennsylvania Department of General Services (DGS) Acting Deputy Secretary for Capital Programs Greg Kirk, Pennsylvania State Police (PSP), and other state and local officials to celebrate the Southeastern Regional Traffic Management Center grand opening at PennDOT District 6 headquarters in Upper Merion Township, Montgomery County.

"The new Southeastern RTMC will expand our capabilities by providing a larger and more modern facility for the management of PennDOT's Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)," Belmonte said. "This will allow us to optimize our operational strategies and technologies and continue our commitment to manage a safe transportation network and help motorists move freely throughout the Philadelphia region."

Currently, the Southeastern RTMC, serving Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia counties, manages the busiest and largest transportation network in Pennsylvania while operating over 50 percent of PennDOT's ITS devices, including 477 Closed Circuit TV (CCTV) cameras, 207 Dynamic Message Signs (DMS), over 700 sensors/readers for travel time and incident detection, and over 700 miles of fiber.

Speakers Include:
Lou Belmonte, PennDOT District 6 Executive
Greg Kirk, DGS Acting Deputy Secretary for Capital Programs
Representative Tim Briggs, Pennsylvania State House
Captain Gerard McShea, Commanding Officer of State Police Troop K, Philadelphia
