RouteTIP roadside beacons send simple, location-specific messages to the hands-free RouteTIP app on the user’s smartphone to provide drivers with information on hazards and traffic congestion ahead, alerts about road conditions, reminders of speed restrictions, journey time information and much more.
The three month trial uses a system developed by Auckland based HMI Technologies and is seen as an opportunity to test the system and gather feedback from a diverse range of drivers.
Sixty key locations have been selected for the trial in a region with high mountain passes and stretches of rural roads which will prove the system’s ability to work in remote and challenging conditions.
