Adeje continue their campaign to upgrade public lighting

Adeje council’s department of municipal services, under councillor Esther Rivero Vargas, continues to bring significant change to the public lighting in the borough.  This is an on-going project to ultimately change all street lighting from sodium-vapour lighting to LED bulbs.  This change will see a significant saving in the cost of public lighting and a notable improvement in the quality of the light in public areas.   The total investment in the project up to now has been €165,000.

 

“We have been improving our public lighting over recent years. Right now the technology allows up improve the system of illumination, it lasts longer and there are reduced maintenance costs.  These bulbs have longer lives than those previous installed”, commented the councillor who added that the companies hired to oversee the moderations are also based in Adeje. 

 

Rivero Vargas continued, “We started work on this project in 2019 and it has meant an important investment, time and money, working in concentrated ways in various zones”.

 

At the moment teams are working in the El Madroñal area, in the following streets - El Almendro, El Moral, El Sauce, El Cardón, La Higuera and the Avenida Kurt Konrad Meyer. Work has already been carried out in Callao Salvaje, Salvaje, Calle La Lava, Calle El Jable and the Avenida La Galga. The lighting along the Avenida Ernesto Sarti, Calle Grande, the Plaza de España and the Avenida de España in Costa Adeje has also been updated.  Work will continue, adapted to the needs of each neighbourhood in the borough.
