We are sharing the following update from National Highways:
Work is progressing well on the LED street lighting upgrades along the A120. The next phase involves installing LED streetlights between Dunmow South Interchange and Panners Roundabout.
Why LED lighting?
LED lights are more environmentally friendly, use significantly less energy, last longer, and require less maintenance. This means fewer road closures in the future and safer roads for everyone.
