First highway with glow-in-the-dark markings opens in the Netherlands

   

     Glow-in-the-dark road marking are now guiding drivers on a road in the Netherlands. The N329 in Oss is being used to pilot the concept, which is part of the Smart Highway project by construction firm Heijmans and design firm Studio Roosegaarde. Glowing Lines is aimed at increasing visibility and safety. It uses luminescent paint that is charged by solar energy during the day and then glows in the dark for up to 10 hours.
