National Highways operates a large number of electronic signs for purposes including setting speed limits, closing lanes and providing information to road users. National Highways holds data on the percentage of time that roadside technology is operable rather than the number of days each device has failed to work. For the operating period April 2020 to March 2021, message Sign availability was 99.61%.<\/p>
