Changes to street lighting in my
street |
|
There are 18 streetlights in the
area. The sodium orange lights are being
replaced with white lights. The problem with white lights is that light
pollution they cause cannot be removed by filters. Orange light from low
pressure sodium lamps can be almost 100% filtered out. |
|
One of the
stated motivations to change the lighting is that the concrete columns have
reached the end of their working lives.
The
closest post to my house.
It will be relocated 10 metres closer to
my property.
Minor
chipping visible. Looks structurally sound.
