New epaper tram stop on Gertrude Street at Brunswick Street. Looks nice and is easy to read. Also solar powered!

@philip ePaper is tragically under-utilised. So many interfaces have crappy low-contrast LCD screens when ePaper would be heaps better (looking at you, Hobart parking meters… 😒
No doubt there is some technical reason to limit uptake, but I suspect often the reason is “price” or “didn’t even think of it”.
@philip Ohhhh so good to see! I noticed these all over Sydney and they were so snazzy for being easy to read even with polarised sunnies on. Great to see them here too.
