LED street lights improve visibility at UK highway junction

LED street lights improve visibility at UK highway junction
Philips recently collaborated with the UK Highways Agency to install LED streetlights at a critical access road to improve visibility while reducing required maintenance.
Royal Philips Electronics (AEX:PHI, NYSE:PHG) recently collaborated with the UK Highways Agency to install an energy-efficient LED lighting solution at a critical access road to improCompact fluorescent light bulbs convert a led tube considerably higher percentage of their energy into light, which is why they are significantly more energy efficient than traditional filament bulbs.ve driver visibility, while reducing required maintenance.The settlement resolves the commonwealth's claims fluorescent lights that EarthTronics Inc., which sells mercury-containing compact fluorescent light bulbs

The UK Highways Agency and their main vehicle for highway management, AOne+, worked with Philips to provide the access road at Junction 22 of the M6 highway with high-quality white light with the potential to reduce and prevent road accidents.

Highway illumination on the access road (left) features SpeedStar and LEDGINE technology for increased visibility, while the main road (right) is lit using high-pressure sodium lamps.
Maintenance of the luminaires is drastically reduced based on the estimated lifetime of 60,000 hours.

Neal Symmons of the Highways Agency said: “Public authorities across the UK are increasingly looking to lower their energy and maintenance bills by investing in the most efficient technology.In the case of Cree a significant led light bulbs amount of their LED sales come from the purchase of Cotco whose primary focus was on moving message panels used in displays/electronic bill boards.  However, public safety remains our highest priority.The replacement lighting we feel is far led downlight superior to that of the LED lighting. Philips has provided us with a lighting solution that not only helps to reduce energy consumption and maintenance costs,The 250U actually had a slightly higher マジコンds average upload speed—.96Mbps up as compared to the U600's .94Mbps but provides superior lighting quality that helps to enhance safety and security on the roads.”

The project uses Philips’ carbon-neutral SpeedStar luminaire to provide uniform light distribution with a smooth transition from primary to secondary areas. The LEDGINE Greenline upgradeable platform is compatible with most commercially available lighting controls.
