Barrington Avenue street light design principles

John Fareham and John Abbott are working to ensure that the detailed design of the Barrington Avenue street lighting scheme conforms to the needs and preferences of local residents.

The installation of additional lamps to cover tenfoot entrances has already been agreed on as a result of the consultation process and whilst some element of mathematical calculation will be involved, there is no risk of lamp standards either blocking drives or having lights shine into houses.  In all the previous lighting schemes we have implemented, only once has it been necessary to shield a lamp. As to the timing of the works, for obvious reasons they are not likely to be carried out in the winter but they could take place next spring so as to ensure a seamless transition from the old street lights to the new.
