Over 35,000 London streetlights are to go LED in a massive ‘invest to save’ project.

Transport for London is to spend close to £11 million installing a central management system and upgrading 35,000 lights to LED by 2016.

Further upgrades will be made over the next 10 years, with most of London’s streetlights to be LED by 2023, as part of a £4 billion investment in the capital’s roads.

Mayor of London Boris Johnson said the project would bring lighting on the London’s roads ‘up to 21st century standards’.

Havard Engineering and CU Phosco – both winners at this year’s Lux Awards – will benefit from the work, with Havard winning a multimillion pound contract for the controls and CU Phosco picked as a preferred supplier for the post-top luminaires.

The controls system will be aligned with traffic flow and road usage, and will reduce maintenance costs by keeping track of light failures.

The programme aims to reduce carbon emissions by around 9,700 tonnes a year, delivering annual savings estimated at £1.85 million. Johnson said: ‘With tens of thousands of lights marking the way on our road network it makes complete sense to focus energy and resources on bringing them up to 21st century standards’.

‘This is the largest investment to modernise street lighting on major roads in our capital’s history and will not only cut carbon emissions and save money but it will also lead to even better and safer roads for Londoners’.
