Cable television subscribers can tune to Montgomery County's channel during morning and evening rush hours for the latest traffic information from the Transportation Management Center (TMC). Delays, incidents, road work, Ride On transit and special event information are provided by integrating live traffic video, text, graphics and audio.

In the event of road closures, the TMC provides recommended detours.

A weekly program listing is available on the County's home page under "News" and in the back of the Washington Post's weekly TV guide.
