Background

I am married with 3 children and 8 grandchildren. My wife Carmen and I lived in Lugarno in Sydney for 25 years before moving to Brighton-le-Sands in late 2006.

For the seven years to 2005 we organised the Lugarno Christmas lights. Thanks to the generosity of the public we managed to raise a total of $380,000 for the Make-a-Wish Foundation to help brighten the lives of sick children.

School zone flashing lights are at the other end of the spectrum and help reduce the number of children who need the services of organisations such as the Make-a-Wish Foundation.

In early 2006 I heard that school zone flashing lights were being trialled by the RTA at a cost of around $12,000 per sign. I set out to prove that reliable flashing lights could be produced for a fraction of that, which I achieved. The results can be found under the RTA Trials link to the left.

I am a private individual, not a company and have no interest in tendering for the installation of flashing lights. I have given my technology to the RTA to use for nothing.

I am determined to ensure that flashing lights are installed at all school zones, or at the minimum at all school zones where vehicles can readily exceed 40km/h. With your support it can be achieved. Until that happens I consider that the recognition I have received for my efforts has been unwarranted.
