Street lighting in Pubei Yi Nationality Township, Yimen County, Yuxi, Yunnan

The Yi’egao Highway is the main traffic artery in Pubei. There is a large flow of vehicles and people along the way, and there are many openings in the villages, which brings safety hazards to passing vehicles and pedestrians. In order to further reduce the risk of accidents and ensure the travel safety of the masses, the Party Committee and the government of Pubei Township took the initiative and coordinated with multiple parties to install 100 solar street lamps in accident-prone places such as village openings and major traffic intersections along the Yi’egao Highway. A series of work such as the restoration of damaged and deformed road signs have ensured that the roads along the Pubei section of the Yi’egao Highway are brighter at night and the driver’s sight is clearer.

“In the past, there were no street lights, and people basically didn’t go out when it got dark. Now that the street lights are installed and the road signs are clearer, the safety of our villagers traveling at night is more secure. Thank you for the practical things the government has done for us.” Pu Yang Jianyun, a resident of Bei Community said.

“Small street lamps” support the “big people’s livelihood”, and the “posting” of street lamps not only improves the public lighting infrastructure, but also provides bright road lighting for vehicles and people passing through the road section at night, and the sense of security and happiness of the people is continuously improved.In the next step, while Pubei Township is improving the construction of lighting facilities in this section, it will also do a good job in daily patrol and maintenance, and actively create a good environment for the masses to travel at night.
