The City of Anaheim has an LED Street Light Replacement Program that focuses on street light reliability improvements and new lighting requests to enhance pedestrian and roadway visibility, and address public safety and security needs within various neighborhoods.
In 2017, Utilities began accelerating the upgrade of its streetlights with light emitting diodes (LED), which have become an industry standard due to the technology’s efficiency, longevity, and gradual reduction in price. LED streetlights are expected to last twice as long as the older, high-pressure sodium (HPS) streetlights, reducing future maintenance requirements.
The program consists of:
Converting approximately 21,000 streetlights from high-pressure sodium (HPS) to Light Emitting Diode (LED). Approximately 80% of the streetlights have been converted to date.
New street light requests are tracked by the Community Services Department and subject to available funding and prioritization in collaboration with other departments and community needs.
