7846 SES America (SESA) and contractor partner Traffic Control Devices has completed final commissioning of walk-in dynamic message signs (DMS) for the Harris County Toll Road Authority along Interstate 10 and US 225 to enhance travel time information and alternative routing advice.

SESA manufactured an energy efficient LED display, the Messenger 6000, requiring no ventilation or cooling systems, dramatically lessening maintenance and labour costs. Conforming to existing HCTRA standards and requirements, SES claims the signs will consume up to 50 per cent less energy, utilising significantly less tax-payer money over the sign’s life span.

Traffic Control Devices integrated the SESA web-based software controller system, which was designed for ease of use, diagnostics and maintenance features for HCTRA. All signs are designed to allow HCTRA employees to enter the sign interior. This feature further enhances the safety and ease of use, as well as eliminating roadway construction work zone slowdowns along the busy I-10 corridor.
