The research report will be of interest to lighting and traffic engineers and researchers concerned with roadway safety, nighttime visibility, and energy conservation. It presents the costs of implementation and the savings possible when operating streetlighting installations at reduced levels during part of the night. The report also addresses the possible legal implications resulting from reduced roadway lighting. The results and findings in the report provide a more thorough understanding of the effect of reduced lighting on the ability of motorists to detect targets at various distances.
