FOI Request - Speed Warning Signs

Request 101003525143

All information on 'approaching speed' warning signs operated by the local authority and are currently non-operational.  These are the signs which illuminate with a speed figure, alerting the driver of the approaching vehicle to how fast they are going.

I would like to know how many sites the council has of these signs, the number which are not working as of this date, how long they have been non-operational plus any estimate for their repair or reinstatement.

Moray Council has no fixed signs that meet the criteria.  The signs in Moray are not council- owned so not able to provide this information.

Moray Council has 6 portable ones, of which we have:

1 that is fully working and is currently up on site.

1 that failed the test and is being worked on getting back up and running if possible.

2 that are operational but are requiring adjusting to radar - call in with suppliers about this.

2 currently being tested.

We have no records of the time that any have been non-functional but can say it would be in excess of 1 year.

There are no costs currently.
