IM will place led lighting throughout the boulevard and in 44 avenues of the city

The Municipality of Montevideo (IM) will replace the yellow light bulbs in all the extension of the boulevard by white led lights. They will be the same lights that are already placed in the internal streets of the neighborhoods.

All the lights will also be replaced on 44 avenues in the cityas he told The Observer the Director of Urban Development, martin delgado. To begin the works, the commune will open a tender this month and will buy, also by tender, 14,000 lights with LED technology for the avenues. The replacement will take place this year and next.

“The financing of this purchase will be solved with the savings generated by the efficiency of led technology that is applied throughout the department”, indicated IM sources.

In the boulevard, the replacement will be in its entirety and the 44 avenues that will be illuminated with led lamps are:

On the other hand, the yellow hanging lamps that are in fabrics in some neighborhoods and in the pedestrian paths of Montevideo will also be replaced. “With this program it will be reaching a percentage of LED lighting close to 100% of the lighting park of the department”, they assured from the commune.

Lights for settlements

From the MI they assured that will illuminate all the settlements in the department in 2023. To do so, the commune will allocate 4,500 lamps placed on poles; work has already begun in some settlements. “There is not going to be a settlement without lighting in Montevideo,” assured the director of Urban Development of the IM, Martín Delgado.

The led spotlights will be installed according to the lighting needs of each areain consultation with the settlement neighborsDelgado explained. The poles will also illuminate the roads or passages, in addition to the access roads.

the MI changed 40,000 lights in the other neighborhoods of Montevideo and passed them to led technology. There are still 30 thousand to install. Those 70,000 lamps had been purchased during the administration of Daniel Martínez -and his deputy Christian Di Candia- in a controversial tender when in 2019 the commune recommended awarding the project of the LED luminaires to the company Prodie SA, which was denounced by its competitors for allegedly falsifying key documents in the purchase process. “The tender for the 70,000 lights is the one that allowed us to make a radical replacement,” stressed the director of Urban Development.

In addition to the 4,500 lights for the settlements, the IMM changed the lighting to LED in some city parks. The next to replace will be the Baroffio Park –in Punta Gorda–, the Rivera Park, the Botanical Garden, the Prado and a part of the Rodó Park –There is an area that has already been illuminated with led posts–.
