In winter 2018, work began to replace an aging lighting system that lined the interstate, with more efficient LED lighting, reducing maintenance and electricity costs.

The End Result
Improved visibility, reduced maintainability, and improved system efficiency.

Project Benefits
Economic: Newly installed LED lighting systems are more efficient, lowering maintenance and operational costs.
Environmental: LED lighting reduces energy consumption.
Safety: LED lighting is brighter and cleaner and provides better visibility for travelers on the highway.
