Kaipara District Council, NZ plans smart pedestrian crossing

Kaipara District Council budgeted $347,000 (NZD) to install smart pedestrian crossing technology outside several local schools. These smart crossing features will include illuminated signage and motion-activated flashing LED roadway lights. The flashing lights will remind drivers of the reduced speed limits during the 30 minutes before and after school. This project is designed to increase the awareness of drivers, reduce speeding, and improve pedestrian safety.
