New digital parking signs are being trialed on Sydney streets in a move designed to make parking simpler, however many have questioned the use of the high-cost technology.
The signs were spotted around Chalmers Street in the inner suburb of Surry Hills and will be trialed for 18 months, with more to be installed around Elizabeth Street later.
The Smart Signage trial is a part of the NSW government´s $695 million Smart Technology Corridors Program.
There has been mixed responses to the introduction of the new signs. Picture: Supplied
The electronic signs show the parking restrictions that apply at the time, rather than the old metal signs which can include a bewildering array of different rules that apply at various times
