First Street - Shared Use Path LED Installation

Started: 01/08/2022

Completed: 10/01/2022

One major LED installation is a shared use path along First Street, a thoroughfare to commonly used student housing and campus property.

The path measures 10 feet wide and separates bike and pedestrian accommodations.

Fifty-one lights stream along the west side of First Street between Windsor Road and Curtis Road.

A motion detector turns lights from 30 percent on to 100, according to Roland White, public works director for Savoy. A ribbon-cutting was held in October 2022.

The new lights only increase an already high-percentage use of all outdoor lights on campus.

About 75 to 80 percent of university-operated outdoor light poles run on LED lights.
