The traffic signals in Denmark must be adjusted so that they adapt to a greater degree to the traffic that is at the individual intersection. This saves society 77 million kroner.
The Road Directorate must start with an adjustment of the traffic signals in Denmark.
The light controls, as they are also called, must be adapted to a greater extent to the traffic on the individual roads and at certain intersections. Primarily because there is something to be saved about it.
When the initiative is fully implemented, it will provide an annual socio-economic saving of DKK 77 million and a climate gain of 150-300 tonnes of CO2 saved per year.
This is what the Road Directorate writes in a press release .
