Dumb Dumb traffic lights
Coming down boomer mountain yesterday and got stuck at the intersection to the dump. Noticed traffic lights went green to non existent traffic. On the way back, same thing, traffic lights on green for about 20 seconds but no traffic coming from the retirement home st. Made me wonder why traffic lights have not kept up with technology to identify traffic patterns and when cars are waiting.
Tonight I see Moreton Council investing 170k to upgrade their traffic lights with AI. Surely that would have been a good investment by SCC. Just head down to the new CBD and prepare to be infuriated by red lights with no cars. All those data centres and LinkedIn posts about being the next silicon Valley when we can't even invest in tech
