Hey, if Woolies can use it for their price stickers, why not here? Thumbs up from me.
Only improvement would be a “Up Next” so when you do park there, you can see when that particular zone policy is over.

Would rather they just made the restriction signs easily understandable. It can’t be that hard

Great idea

Is the idea (if the trial is successful and completed) for the old signs to remain in conjunction with this? That could be good. If it’s to replace it that sounds terrible.

The new sign should also have the time it applies for. Why trial a new sign if it doesn’t have all the info. They should assume the existing one isn’t there

Great, now you have to take a picture with a timestamp to be able to dispute a parking ticket.

It’s good, as long as they have the resources to maintain them. I imagine a steel sign has a longer life expectancy than a digital one.

Dumbest fucking thing I’ve ever seen

Looks kinda like an e-ink display, and honestly if it is I think they should take it further –
2 e-ink signs vertically stacked. Top one being “CURRENT” that just lists what the current restrictions are and time frames in large clear text that you can see from afar. Then the bottom can have the smaller text showing all other options and their time periods.
Whenever I’ve had to rely on these signs, all I want to know is “Can I park here RIGHT NOW and if so, for how long?”
To have that info always at the top and nice and clear would be amazing.. Too many times I’ve parked, gotten out, walked up to a sign, studied the hieroglyphs for a solid minute and THEN realised I can’t actually park there and had to drive off somewhere else.

Just read the signs?
Still missing red pointing arrow and circle.
