Commission approves replacement of transit radio system, new antenna planned
Summary
The board approved purchase and installation of a new digital radio system and antenna infrastructure to replace aging equipment; staff said the upgrade will use a different digital frequency and improve clarity.
Kenosha — The Board of Transit Commissioners approved a contract to replace the agency’s aging radio system with a new digital radio system and antenna infrastructure.
Staff described the project as a full replacement of radios and an antenna system; the meeting record notes the antenna location as “30 Ninth.” The director said the system uses a different digital frequency and should provide clearer message transmission.

The board did not specify contract dollar amounts during the discussion; staff said more procurement details will be provided as contracts are finalized.
