It's difficult to take an interesting photo of a street light, but I'm delighted the new lighting has arrived, for which Roger Freeman and many local residents have campaigned for a long time.
It's white light, which is substantially better and has been shown to double driver peripheral vision and increase driver brake reaction time at least 25%.
I was intrigued by the different styles of lights and council officers explained that the lighting columns in Aberdare and Acol are side entry style and therefore lanterns were fitted to suit this application. In Goldhurst they are what is known as a post top fitting so in keeping with the area staff fitted the most suitable post top lantern. The light source is the same on both these lighting units.
