LED Roadway Lighting in Lake Tahoe
Are you considering investing in municipal street lighting for your town? If so, you might be very interested to learn about an exciting new project on the Pioneer Trail.
Our team here at Great Basin Lighting is helping to make Pioneer Trail to Lake Tahoe safer, more energy efficient and more economical. In addition to the installation of LED roadway lights, Tahoe Transportation Department is installing a variety of bus shelters on Highway 50 to improve usability and enhance “safety, visibility, aesthetics, [and] maintenance.” According to Tahoe Transportation District Manager, Carl Hasty, “We are making great progress installing shelters as funding becomes available and saw an ideal opportunity to complement the recently completed Caltrans Water Quality Project this summer.”
Great Basin Lighting assisted substantially with this LED roadway lighting project. By investing in Highway 50’s infrastructure, the Tahoe community will likely enjoy substantial benefits not just in the short term (i.e. improved bus shelters and roadway visibilty) but also long term, due to:
- Reduced energy costs;
- Reduced maintenance costs;
- Improved safety and usability;
- The enhancements should make the community even more attractive as a tourist destination… which should indirectly also attract more business to the area
