A 1: The DMS are or will be connected to the FAST Traffic Management Center (TMC) through a fiber optic communications network. Operators at the TMC are (will be) able to place messages on the DMS to alert drivers of an incident ahead, ramp or lane restrictions, upcoming construction, and other important information about current or future freeway conditions. Messages will be routed from the operator workstations at the TMC through the communications systems and illuminated on the DMS.
