Content components We installed 4 solar lights along the car park entry and northern car park at Burwood Reserve. We did this to:provide safer access to and from the sports facilities in the evening and after darkgive people more opportunities to use the oval for sport and recreation activitiesencourage people of all genders to participate in sport (this forms part of our Diversity, Inclusion and Participation Program).About the projectOur final design included 4 light solar lights instead of 6. We found that this:is more efficientcan achieve the same lighting levels needed along the car park to meet Australian Standards.Key features of the lighting include:targeted light to minimise impact on wildlife and surrounding neighbourhoodenergy-efficient LED lighting generated by solar powercontrolled timing from dusk, with the lights switched off by 11:45 pm Monday to Saturday and 9 pm Sunday and public holidays. This may change slightly in accordance with the sporting clubs allocated times at Burwood Reserve.TimelineWorks were finalised in mid-May and took 4 weeks to complete.More informationFor more information about the project, please contact our Landscape and Design team on (03) 9278 4444 or [email protected].
