Cost Savings of Intersection Traffic Lights
Light Emitting Diode (LED) lights for intersection traffic lights in West Hartford are a safety benefit because the LEDs are brighter and you can see
them from further away. This is a benefit, especially for the
older people.
Hartford Connecticut is changing their traffic lights because of efficiency, cost savings and higher safety.
LED Cost Savings
The project will initially cost about $25,000, but officials said it will pay for itself within a year. With increased efficiency and decreased maintenance – about once every five years – the lights will save taxpayers $13,000 per year, according to city engineers.
