It's Time Shepway LED on Streetlights
Local Lib Dem Gary Fuller wants to see a much quicker roll out of LED street lighting in Shepway, rather than what he sees as a continuing programme of savings at the expense of public safety. Gary believes that LED street lighting represents both a cost saving and a green investment in our future. LED street lights use 15 percent of the energy of incandescent bulb lighting while generating more light per watt.
