Electronic Signs for New Zealand Motorways

Share to Google Classroom

New Zealand is about to get electronic motorway signs.
The New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) has started rolling out the new signs in Auckland.
Six full-colour, high-pixel signs have been installed on the Northern, Southern, Northwestern and Southwestern motorways. Seven more are planned.
Other areas of New Zealand will get the signs in the future, although a timeline is not yet known.
Each new sign costs $80,000 and are paid for from the latest budget.
The new signs will enable more detailed information to be included such as information on highway conditions and travel information.

Power cuts would mean no road use which means angry people which means more people vote against john key which means happy life.
