It would be interesting to know why the council plants solar and wind powered road signs because they cost £10,000 and by law the council has to plant a normal road sign which says exactly the same thing next to it. The council should just plant normal road signs and save thousands of pounds for spending on something else. Normal road signs are just as effective at night because they are covered with a reflective coating and so they reflect the light from car head lamps. Apparently the council has designated money for solar powered road signs and if the money wasn't used for the solar powered signs then it wouldn't be used at all. Its like those pointless road signs which warn drivers of toads or deer or horses crossing the road but there are no toads, deer or horses to be seen.
