On the entire Highway Network, Strada dei Parchi communicates with Travelers through:
- Variable Message Panels: located throughout the network and at the entrances to highway toll booths, they provide travelers with traffic information; only in regular traffic situations are messages related to safety or driving advice transmitted. In addition, thanks to a series of sensors, a periodic update (every 4 minutes) on average travel times is detected and communicated on the panels.
