Hardin County agencies are merging onto the Jefferson County - City of Beaumont radio system which is to be called the Southeast Texas Regional Radio System.
The Lumberton, Silsbee, Kountze and Sour Lake Police Departments will merge into the regional system.
Currently the upgrades are regional, the first step toward a state-wide network.
Orange County is also in the process of merging into the Jefferson County system.
The project should be completed by mid-summer.
The new 800 Mhz system will improve officer safety, dispatch capabilities and communications.
The upgrade will also include mobile data terminals for patrol vehicles.
