Portable Traffic Lights

On 10 December 1868, the first traffic lights were installed outside the British Houses of Parliament in London, by the railway engineer J. P. Knight. They resembled railway signals of the time, with semaphore arms and red and green gas lamps for night use. The gas lantern was turned with a lever at its base so that the appropriate light faced traffic. Unfortunately, it exploded on 2 January 1869, injuring the policeman who was operating it.

Portable traffic lights, or any other earth moving equipment, ( these guys even have portable message display boards) from LDC Equipment are non-flammable. They don't use gas and they don't blow up. Bit of an improvement on that first traffic light.

Now here in 2009 is the next improvement; portable traffic lights. When would I need portable traffic lights I hear you say?

It sounds like it doesn't happen every day, and it doesn't. But sometimes it does. You might be doing some severe landscape work on the house, or your construction site starts blocking traffic. That's your problem. Do you know what you need? Portable traffic lights.

So where do I go to get portable traffic lights? Where do I go to get digital display signs?

That is a good question.Enter those terms in a search engine like Google and you won't get very far. And you could try opening up the Yellow Pages. But do I look under equipment? Portable traffic lights? What?

It might be a surprise to find that LDC Eathmoving Equipment & Supplies of Brisbane have protable traffic lights.

The service from LDC is excellent and all the staff arevery friendly. In fact, LDC is your one-stop-shop for portable traffic lights. LDC provide message boards and traffic light systems across Brisbane.

Bet they had no idea when they installed that first set of traffic lights in London all those years ago that they would one day be portable. And who would have thought about message boards , message signs and portable traffic light systems?!
