146 lamps in Zhuhai section are all replaced with LED street lights
The 73 sets of street lights that have been replaced in the Zhuhai Road (Xiangyu Avenue to Nanchang Road) section are one of the implementation plans for this year's streetlights. One of the biggest highlights is the replacement of traditional sodium lamps with LED lights, saving energy and environmental protection, and improving light efficiency while saving more than 45%.
At 2:30 pm on the 13th, the traffic on Zhuhai Road was endless. The yellow streetlight maintenance aerial work vehicle was very eye-catching. The two masters were busy loading the lights. The staff on the side explained that the lamps on this road have been in operation for more than 10 years. In the previous inspection and testing, it was found that the lamps were aging seriously, resulting in poor light efficiency and high failure rate. “A total of 146 sets of 73 sets of street lamps have to be replaced.” The staff said that it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to replace the entire set of lamps, including the removal of old lamps, the installation of new lamps and the replacement of lamps. Two workers in one operation can only change 32 fixtures a day, and it is expected that the road will be completed in one day.
With the continuous maturity of LED lighting technology, the primary and secondary roads with insufficient lighting in the urban area and severe aging of lamps will be gradually replaced. The 12 sections of the renovation were all replaced with LED lamps. “I obviously feel that the road surface is getting brighter.” Mr. Guo, who went home on Zhuhai Road late in the evening, said.
Indeed, the advantages of "Rookie" LED lights are obvious compared to the sodium lamps used in the past. According to reports, LED lights are not only energy-saving and environmentally friendly, but also the maintenance rate is very low. The staff especially mentioned Yuehe Road. "We have piloted the LED lights on Yuehe Road, using a total of 119 baht. It has been running for more than 4 years and only replaced one or two drive power supplies." The staff said that this is not comparable to traditional sodium lamps, so this year, urban roads began to be retrofitted using LED lamps.
A total of 1,283 sets of lamps are expected to be completed by the end of this month.
Street lights are the "eyes" of the city at night. Every year, before the development of the large-scale repair project for street lamps, the Municipal Urban Lighting Management Office must conduct repeated investigations on the street lamps within the jurisdiction, and combine them with the reflections of the general public and the residents' committees. Not only that, but also through continuous the argument can be finalized. It is understood that this year's streetlight large and medium repair project involves 12 main and secondary roads, branch roads, level crossings and walking trails. According to the reporter's rough statistics, this project will have to replace 1,283 sets of lamps. In addition, some of the lamp holders also need to be replaced.
The reporter learned that this year's streetlight large and medium-sized repair project started construction in late October and is expected to be completed by the end of this month. The 12 sections involved in the project include: Huaihai West Road (Hanhou Avenue to Beijing Road), Chengde South Road (Li Canal to Yan'an East Road), Chengde North Road (Guhuai River to Li Canal), Huaihai East Road ( Huaihai North Road to Xiangyu Avenue), Yuexiu Road (Chengde Road to Xiangyu Avenue), Hangzhou Road (Xiangyu Avenue to Nanchang Road), Zhuhai Road (Xiangyu Avenue to Nanchang Road), Huanyu Road ( Xiangyu Avenue to Shuidu Avenue), Huanyu Road (Shuidu Avenue to Xiangyu North Road), KaiRMB Road (Traffic Road to Chengde North Road), Huaihai South Road (Li Canal to Grand Canal) and Hefei Road (Shuidukou) Road to Datong Road).
