The new lights went into service last week following completion of an installation project for the city by a private contractor. The improvement is welcomed for several reasons, Public Works Director Kenneth Meng commnet ed. "In addition to providing a well lighted thoroughfare for traffic us ing this busy arterial, the new lights are expected to increase driving safety, assist visitors in lo cating directions and addresses and provide safer night time walk ing for pedestrians," he said. Complex Notable Moreover, the new chain of lights tied together with other lighting betterments previously established on Oak, Pine, Stephens and the Oak Ave. Bridge has resulted in developing an outstanding complex of street lights between the 1-5 underpass and the downtown area. No street lighting provisions were included in the contract for constructing the Washington Ave. Bridge, Meng noted in reviewing the lighting project. The city, how ever, looked ahead to the eventual need for illuminating this area with the result that light pole bases were set in and conduit installed under the streets at the bridge ap proaches at time of construction. Once the bridge and Pine-Stephens couplet were completed, the City Council decided to provide lighting, the project to be financed from bridge and blast funds. Since the conduit was already in place, there was no need to tear up streets to complete the improvement. high school making a total of 19 new lights. .The new poles and fixtures are owned and will be maintained bv the city, as are the units on Steph ens and elsewhere within the com mercial area.
