At Sheffield, Meadowhall, Rotherham, Barnsley
and Arundel Gate interchanges SYMCA staff communicate between
handheld radios and a desk-based mobile radio located at a control
desk. Communications between interchange sites via these systems
are currently not possible. The existing system has significant
shortcomings and is approaching the end of its effective service
life.
To improve radio communications at and between Interchanges, quotes
have been sought for a PMR system upgrade.
Radiocoms Systems Limited have been appointed to undertake a PMR
system upgrade. Following their appointment, the need for various
additional works became apparent, including installation of new
aerials and other equipment and renewal of licences.
