Solar powered road studs

Gizmag has a great article outlining the launch of new solar powered road studs that use Light Emitting Diodes and stored solar power to provide a 10-fold improvement in visibility.

Offering considerable improvements in visibility over traditional reflective road studs, these would likely be a great addition for Bermuda’s dark and winding roads to help improve safety and hopefully prevent late night accidents.

  1. Wave2Wave,
    Thanks for pointing that out. I’ve noted that there are a few along the causeway (though I’d like to see them added to the walls as well) as well as a couple at a zebra crossing in front of the college.
    Glad to see these things being added to our roads. There are a great many dark roads that could benefit from these.
