Oshawa Street Lighting Brighter Than Moonlight Oshawa's main_ business streets now are among the best lighted thoroughfares of any co" munity in Ontario. Just recently, Oshawa Public Utilities Commission installed 78 color-improved mercury va- por lamps on existing ornamen- tal steel standards on King street (Highway 2) and: Simcoe street, two of the main business thoroughfares of the city. These © are very high output lamps pro- viding. more light, but using less electric power, than the former light units which were replaced. Each new luminaire has an output of 20,000 lumens. MORE LIGHT THAN MOON Providing street lighting that is approximately 350 times as much light on road level, direct- ly under the luminaires, as from the full moon on a clear night, the new street lights are 400 watts each. The luminaires are spaced opposite each other at approximately 5 feet intervals and are about 30 feet above road surface.
