Current expected travel times and speeds on the highway system between Denver and Vail, and some arterials in Denver are displayed using colors (black to green). The speeds are calculated every 2 minutes using current driving speeds on the roads. A complex algorithm uses toll tags by matching them at various locations as the primary data input, supplementing it with point speed data from inductive loops and side-fire radars to determine expected speed and travel times on various segments of the roads. CDOT has deployed several 100 devices to provide this data input.

The speeds on the road ways are used to determine the route travel times (such as from Denver to Vail) and then posted automatically to the Message Signs every 4 minutes.
