Light emmitting diodes job- produce light – do it effiecently- last a long time – Leds
use is superior to incandescent use-
The heat missing in this equation would be costing communities the other weeks of the year,
the heat is waste- the short lifespan of incandescent bulbs that is wasteful(maint, cost of
ownership , co2 footprint of the device…
The solution is in the housing design not the type of LIGHT – Stories of Led- anti adoption
or resistance to their use reminds me of back in the 70s& the switch to unleaded gas/ now
no one I know uses leaded gas it seems that people will resist logical change because
they don’t want change. Progressing in to the future may require thinking and some
problem solving – engineering . The traffic control devices need retro fitting – It should
have been factored in at the point of acceptance of the proposal!

Makes you wonder if we should even be traveling in our cars when road conditions can be blamed on poor lighting. Did you say you had a foot of snow fall?

You know, this is a side effect no one thought of! Just another reminder about how everything we do has consequences, both good and bad!
