The workstations are used twenty four (24) hours a day for dispatching functions, a task that is a critical for the operations of the State Highway Patrol. These improvements will provide updated dispatch equipment, furnishings, and renovations to improve the efficiency and operational effectiveness of dispatch centers in Lebanon, Delaware, Bowling Green, and Canton.

The capital funds under request total $198,592.
