Road lighting conference returns

The Road Lighting 2015 conference will return to New Zealand next year from 9-10 March at the Langham Hotel in Auckland.

The conference, organised by Strategic Lighting Partners, will help road lighting authorities learn about LED road lighting developments that could halve New Zealand’s road lighting costs. It will feature international experts with first-hand experience of switching to efficient road lighting.

“Energy efficiency and safer road conditions are well-researched benefits of LED road lighting.  LED lighting could save up to 50% or more of the energy currently consumed on road lighting, and white LED lighting significantly improves road visibility and driver reaction times,” says Strategic Lighting Partner (SLP) directors Godfrey Bridger and Bryan King.

“The 2014 conference opened the eyes of the road lighting community to the opportunities available, and the 2015 conference will build on concepts of liveable cities and the sustainable night economy.”
