Meanwhile in the Netherlands of the Day

Meanwhile in the Netherlands of the Day:














The Dutch design firm Studio Roosegaarde teamed up with the infrastructure management group Heijmans to replace the traditional paint used on roads with a photoluminescent powder that will glow in the dark. Additionally, the roads will light up with snowflake indicators when the temperature drops below freezing to warn drivers of icy conditions. These new highway designs are expected to debut by the middle of the year.
