The Ohio State Highway Patrol is changing the way it dispatches troopers by combining the dispatchers from six counties into one center in St. Clairsville.

The patrol invested in a new radio system — a Multi-Agency Radio Communication System, or MARCS — that gives the patrol statewide communication capabilities.
Troopers used to fill in as dispatchers in the past but won’t be able to with MARCS because of the training involved, according to Evans.
