Hillcrest Area Gets Upgraded Street Lighting

by Rockland Daily Staff

Hillcrest is the most recent area to receive upgraded lighting in unincorporated Ramapo.

The extensive upgraded lighting project plan, as reported by Rockland Daily, is well underway, with more lights areas coming soon as the plan to have 3,300 street lights installed throughout unincorporated Ramapo continues apace. 

"We are also upgrading all new and existing lights to LED smart lights,' Town of Ramapo Supervisor Michael Specht shared with Rockland Daily in December, "so we can raise or lower brightness as needed. For example, we can make the lights brighter in the evenings when people are out walking and dim them later at night. The upgraded lighting will be energy efficient and have reduced glare, making it easier on drivers and pedestrians."
