Detail in the box below their accomplishments this month.

The City of Baytown’s Public Works Department became the first city in the state of Texas to convert from using high pressure sodium lights that required high energy usage, typically had a short life span coupled with high maintenance and installed LED highway lighting on its triangle highway system. The new LED lights are by far more energy efficient lights.
The Public Works Department/Traffic Division installed 350 new LED lights on portions of Interstate 10, Highway 146 and Spur 330 traffic corridors through the City of Baytown.
The $350,k project was completed in April of 2012 several weeks ahead of schedule.
The Public Works Department is proud to lead the way in such an important cost-savings project.
The LED light project vastly improves driver visibility and enhances motorist safety and reduced electricity rates by 65-80% in the highway areas where the LED’s were installed.
This project was also awarded the
APWA
Texas Chapter
Sustainability Practices Award
To recognize individuals, teams or organizations that have made outstanding contributions to promote sustainability in public works.
