Subject: Official Information request - Laser devices installed on
Karangahape Rd

 

Dear Auckland Council,
I have recently noticed the installation and usage of numerous (
approximately 50) unidentified laser devices installed on lampposts on
Karangahape Rd . They are not lights , and not cameras . They are facing
both directions at each side of the road , aimed at the cycle path and
footpath .
They emit flashing lights sporadically. What are these and what is their
purpose ? Please give a detailed explanation of their capabilities.
Thank you

Yours faithfully,

Anouk Koene
