TELTRONIC has had its bid accepted in a tender for the construction of a TETRA network for Brazil’s Federal Highway Police (PRF). The PRF, which is part of the Ministry of Justice, is the police force responsible for public safety and traffic control on the country’s federal highways. By way of this project, Brazil’s Federal Government has shown its intention to provide the latest generation of digital communications for its 61,000 km. road network.
 
The first phase of the project is made up of 650 base stations spread over 12 regions, which will provide coverage for the roads of Brazilian states with borders with other countries as well as around the twelve host cities for the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
