For All You Transport Geeks

I spent the past two days on a ramp metering training course. Auckland is planning on installing over 90 signals on the ramps to it's motorway system. A few signals have already been installed, to mixed reviews from the public, but overall traffic flow on the network has been improved.
Auckland is using a SCATS based system developed by RTA in Sydney. The training was given by Peter Lowrie, one of the orginal inventors of SCATS.
