After the community learned about the residents’ demands for solving the community street lighting during daily visits, the Party Committee attached great importance to it and promptly organized a deliberation and consultation meeting to allow party members and the masses to participate in community governance. Finally, it was decided to install solar induction lights to solve the lighting problem in the community.

After the plan was determined, the community organized more than 60 working party members in the jurisdiction to purchase street lights by raising funds in the group to claim “micro wishes”. At the installation site, community staff also checked the lighting effect of solar lights at night to ensure that the public passages and corridors of the community can be illuminated by lights.

The newly installed solar street lights not only illuminate the way home for residents, but also warm the hearts of residents. The democratic community will continue to be guided by party building and use the creation of a “happy home” as a vehicle to deeply understand the demands of residents, start with the “little things around” of the masses, do good things well, and do a solid and detailed job of serving the people, so that grassroots governance will not only be powerful but also warm.

The first batch of smart lamp poles in Henan Yudongnan High-tech Zone are put into use

Recently, the first batch of smart street lights in Huangchuan County, Xinyang City, Yudongnan High-tech Zone, Henan Province, were officially put into use on Nanchang Street of Yudongnan (Phase I) project.

The first batch of smart lamp poles in Henan Yudongnan High-tech Zone are put into use

These seemingly ordinary lights are actually not ordinary. The 124 lamp poles that resemble “spring buds” use “smart combined poles” that integrate lighting, video surveillance, traffic management and other functions. Giving a sense of ritual to “smart” travel and “low-carbon” travel can be called the “smart light” of high-quality development in southeastern Henan.

The Yudongnan (Phase I) project has attracted much attention from all walks of life since its launch. The construction content includes the big health industry park and supporting infrastructure construction projects and the Huanghe ecological governance project (Phase I). Nanchang Street, where the smart street lights are lit this time, is the main urban traffic trunk road in Xinyang City, and it is also one of the first construction projects of the basic supporting projects in the starting area of ??Yudongnan High-tech Zone.

Smart lamp poles are not just “lights”. These street lamps integrate new technologies such as AI-enabled light-following vehicles and deep energy saving. Through the built-in smart gateway, remote control, telemetry, telecommunication and remote adjustment can be realized. In the later stage, it can also be equipped with intelligent sensing equipment such as security monitoring, information release, environmental detection, and smart transportation. It is a demonstration of smart park on street lights.

“Intelligence” does not stop there. The intelligent controller of the street light will automatically and accurately predict the sunrise and sunset time every day according to the longitude and latitude of the equipment. According to the traffic conditions of people and vehicles, it can adjust the illumination and lighting range automatically to realize dynamic and intelligent lighting adjustment to achieve “light when the car comes and dark when the car leaves”, which not only improves the safety of night driving but also reduces energy consumption by about 60%.

The shape of the smart street light is like “Spring Bud” and “Xinyang Maojian”, which integrates the characteristics of Xinyang. Standing in the Southeast Henan High-tech Zone, it symbolizes the revival and prosperity of all things, and has become a beautiful landscape in the Southeast Henan High-tech Zone.

“Before the installation of street lights, we got up at 4 a.m. and had to go to the fields in the dark to pick vegetables and deliver them to the vegetable market and large supermarkets in the city before 6 a.m. It was very inconvenient to pick vegetables wearing a cap light or carrying a flashlight, especially on rainy days. You have to carry a flashlight and an umbrella, and you can’t see clearly at all. Either the vegetables are rotten or picked wrong, and the quality of the vegetables is not good, and you can’t sell them at a good price. Now that street lights have been installed around our base, it is much more convenient for us to pick vegetables, the speed is fast, and the quality is good!”

It is reported that the area near the asparagus industry base in Wangjiaji Village is dark every night, especially on rainy days, which makes travel inconvenient and there are safety hazards. Installing street lights to solve travel problems has become the wish of nearby villagers and drivers who often travel on this road section.

The masses have something to say, and the Party Committee and the government have something to respond to. In order to effectively solve the problem of people’s difficulty in traveling at night, in July 2024, under the guidance and support of the Party Committee, Government and Finance Office of Zhongguanyi Town, the Wangjiaji Village Committee and the village work team widely collected suggestions from villagers, conducted field investigations, and held a village representative meeting to discuss and study together. It is planned to carry out lighting engineering construction with the asparagus industry base as the center, and install 50 street lights in the surrounding area to focus on solving the problem of insufficient street lights in Wangjiaji Village. Although the weather is hot, with the joint efforts and cooperation of many parties, the installation of street lights was completed on schedule.

During the construction process, the community arranged special personnel to follow up, and at the same time, they kept a good quality and safety check to effectively promote the installation of community street lights. With the resolution of a series of problems such as the field survey of the street light resettlement site, wiring, and electricity bill payment in the early stage, 32 street lights were quickly installed. Whenever night falls and the street lights are on, residents gather under the street lights to chat and play, and they are particularly happy.

“It’s great to install the lights. In the past, when I went out for a walk at night and walked here, I had to turn on the mobile phone flashlight for lighting. Now that the street lights are installed, we feel more at ease when walking.” This move was unanimously praised by the residents. A total of 32 solar street lights were installed this time, covering and illuminating about 6,500 square meters of road surface in the resettlement community. The installation of street lights has facilitated the residents’ travel, and the dark night life is gone forever. The living environment and quality of life have been further improved.

The interests of the masses are no small matter, and every branch and leaf is always concerned. Although the installation of street lights is a small matter, it is closely related to the happy life of residents. In the next step, Shengxin Town will continue to be guided by the needs of the masses, actively carry out the “I do practical things for the masses” project, and continuously improve the sense of security, happiness and satisfaction of the masses.

Baoding, Hebei Province, conducts centralized maintenance of urban lighting facilities

Recently, the Urban Lighting Management and Maintenance Service Center of the Law Enforcement Bureau of Baoding City, Hebei Province, completed the maintenance of lighting facilities in 2024 as scheduled, and concentrated on rectifying the loss of street lamp facilities caused by long lighting time, large power load, and low temperature, rain and snow weather in winter, to ensure the safe and reliable operation of lighting facilities during this year’s flood season.

Baoding, Hebei Province, conducts centralized maintenance of urban lighting facilities

The Urban Lighting Management and Maintenance Service Center strictly follows the spring maintenance plan and daily inspections, reasonably arranges the construction schedule, and focuses on key sections to give priority to tackling key problems, so as to improve the quality of spring maintenance and the travel efficiency of citizens.

Centralized maintenance of light pole well box transformers. The high-voltage monitoring center conducts a full-scale inspection of the box transformers and water level monitors of the base stations and water accumulation points, cleans and repairs 324 base stations, debugs 20 water level monitors, and paints 17 transformers, etc., with a coverage rate of 100%; Tiedong and Tiexi maintenance stations have repaired and handled more than 7,000 power wells, with a coverage rate of 46.1% of the total power wells, exceeding the target by 16.1%. The average lighting rate in the first half of the year reached 99.46%, exceeding the provincial standard by 1.46%.

Carry out grounding resistance detection of lighting facilities. Rain and snow soaking causes great loss to street light lines. In order to prevent leakage accidents, the grassroots units of urban lighting management and maintenance take the spring maintenance as an opportunity to conduct corresponding grounding resistance detection on street light transformers, distribution boxes, lamp pole facilities, lamps, etc., especially focusing on areas susceptible to waterlogging. For lamp poles that do not meet the grounding standards, take corresponding measures in time to avoid safety hazards caused by lamp pole leakage. At the same time, check whether the door of the street light control box is locked to prevent electric shock when it is opened by itself, and comprehensively check whether the lamp pole is leaking electricity to eliminate safety hazards.

Night patrol and day repair to ensure operation. Implement the night division and group inspection system, promptly feedback problems found during the inspection, make daytime maintenance plans and implement maintenance tasks, so that “night patrol and daytime repair” become the normal working routine. The grid management mode of strong inspection and heavy maintenance is adopted on a daily basis to effectively manage illegal connections and illegal advertisements, ensuring that the intact rate of facilities reaches 97.12%, which exceeds the provincial standard by 7.12%. From January to the end of May, the inspection team cleaned up more than 6,800 small advertisements and debris on lamp poles, cleaned up more than 80 waste road flags, and notified the property rights unit to deal with the crooked, reversed, and irregular road flags. 433 single-lamp extinguishing and 116 large-scale extinguishing were checked to ensure the safe operation of street lamp facilities and create safe and stable urban lighting.

Highlight the main business of maintenance and improve the resilience of lighting. Daily maintenance is refined and detailed. 1,293 sodium bulbs, 312 LED lamp heads, and 477 ballasts were replaced. 132 cable faults and 387 line faults were checked and repaired, which comprehensively improved the operating efficiency of lighting facilities and eliminated potential safety hazards.

As the main flood season approaches, the rainfall in Baoding will increase significantly, which will not only cause inconvenience to citizens’ travel, but also bring severe challenges to the safe and efficient operation of street lighting facilities. The Urban Lighting Management and Service Center will continue to pay attention to weather changes, strengthen the inspection and maintenance of lighting facilities, improve the quality and management level of urban lighting, properly respond to extreme weather, continue to strengthen the safety inspection and maintenance of street lighting facilities, and promptly discover and solve problems that arise, so as to ensure the normal operation of street lighting during the flood prevention period and ensure the safe operation of urban lighting facilities.

New lighting facilities added to Xixi Viaduct, Luncang Town, Nan’an City, Quanzhou, Fujian

The Xixi Viaduct, located at the entrance and exit of the Nan’an West (Lunchang) Expressway in Quanzhou, Fujian Province, originally only connected the G358 line and Maosheng West Road. With the opening of the Anxi Branch Expressway, a huge amount of traffic has been brought to the Xixi Viaduct, which was originally only 1.3 kilometers long.

New lighting facilities added to Xixi Viaduct, Luncang Town, Nan'an City, Quanzhou, Fujian

In order to bring more convenient and safe travel to the surrounding people and people traveling in and out of Luncang. The Luncang Town Government of Nan’an City launched the Xixi Viaduct lighting project through bidding at the end of December 2023. The project took 30 days to be successfully completed. The project installed 24 12-meter-high LED 200W street lights on the approach sections at both ends of the bridge. A 1,650-meter-long LED directional lighting guardrail light was installed on the bridge section, and 2,900 meters of cables were laid.

Luncang Town has been committed to improving the infrastructure construction within its jurisdiction and improving the quality of life of residents. To this end, the road lighting project has been implemented in depth to light up the “footpath” for residents, illuminate the “happy road” in the township, and give rural revitalization a “head start”.

The entire lighting project takes into account many advantages such as energy saving and emission reduction, low carbon and environmental protection, high safety performance, good stability, long service life, etc. It not only meets the lighting needs, but also achieves a harmonious unity of functionality, environmental protection and aesthetics.

The dedicated bicycle road in Beijing’s Changping District extends the lighting hours of street lights

Since 2018, Changping District has vigorously promoted the Huitian Action Plan, implemented Beijing’s first dedicated bicycle road project, and gradually improved the urban slow-traffic system. Since the opening of the first dedicated bicycle road on May 31, 2019, it has greatly enriched the travel methods of residents along the line and has also become a cultural corridor.

The dedicated bicycle road in Beijing’s Changping District extends the lighting hours of street lights

After verification, it was found that the street lights in the roadbed section of the bicycle-only road are solar street lights. The duration of continuous lighting is related to the lighting time and weather. Currently, the lighting time has been set to the maximum lighting time. In order to address citizens’ demands and make up for the problem that solar street lights cannot extend the lighting time, the District Urban Management Committee is actively studying solutions.

The final decision was to extend the shutdown time of the searchlight lighting in the culvert at the intersection of the Beijing-Baotou Line railway and the bicycle-only road to 6:50 a.m. to assist in lighting nearby road sections and meet the requirements for safe riding. Afterwards, the staff reported the adjustment results to the citizens, who were very satisfied with the results.

There is no small matter for the masses. In the next step, the Changping District Urban Management Committee will continue to respond to the concerns of the masses with a positive and serious working attitude, with the goal of resolving citizens’ demands in a timely manner, widely accepting citizens’ opinions and suggestions, treating the masses’ demands as their own business, and focusing on solving the problems of the masses. We will continue to improve service quality and create a good cycling environment for citizens by taking care of the worries, annoyances and worries around us.
