Courtesy Speed Display Signs
WALGA’s RoadWise has purchased two sets of courtesy speed display signs (CSDS) for Local Governments to borrow.
CSDS are designed to detect and show the speed of an approaching vehicle together with a pre-programmed message that is displayed to the driver of the vehicle (e.g. the current vehicle speed in km/h with a message such as “too fast, slow down” or a symbol such as a smiley face).
The signs can assist Local Governments in:
- addressing elements of road use by encouraging behaviour maintenance or behaviour change in relation to speeding along with support for speed enforcement activity by local police, and
- supporting their own local area speed management treatments/works or speed limit changes by Main Roads WA to positively influence travel speeds across the network.
More Information
RoadWise Councils can contact their Road Safety Advisor for more information on the signs and how they can assist in supplementing their local road safety initiatives.
