Vic Roads - Plastic Roundabout Signs

Last September a rider came to grief and died, when he struck a metal chevron directional sign, early one morning on his way to the Moto GP at Phillip Island in September 2007.

Following this accident the MRAA Board made a sugestion to Vic Roads that these signs were a hazard for riders and that they should be replaced with plastic alternatives.

It appears that the local Regional Vic Roads Manager has acted on that advice and installed plastic signs at the roundabout.
