Project Summary
New solar street lighting for residential streets | Grants, New Mexico.
Background
This residential area didn’t have any streetlights and the new Public Works manager felt they were needed due to high incidents of crime and drug related anti-social behavior in the area.
Solution
The solution supplied was the GFS-200 solar street lights as they operate at 100% power all night. They have lights on the intersecting streets for now, and are aiming to illuminate the middle sections of the streets as funding becomes available.
Outcome
Many of the local residents appreciate the lights, and the police department have stated “it helps them patrol the neighborhood easier and improves overalls safety”
