Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed digital advertisement display on public safety with particular regard to highway safety

What decided it

The position and format of the proposed digital advertisement display would distract motorists and cyclists approaching the Fullers Hill roundabout at a critical point where high attention is required, thereby creating a detriment to public safety.

The benefits of digital technology including easier maintenance, greater efficiency and site upgrade did not outweigh the harm identified in relation to public safety.
