Description
From the Transportation Department's Streetlights page: The Street Division is responsible for all the streetlights in the City of San Diego. The City of San Diego has over 40,000 streetlights in operation. Nine thousand of these lights belong to local community "Lighting Districts" which pay a special assessment fee to support the additional or ornamental lighting in their neighborhoods. In addition, Street Division maintains over 4,000 lights in parks, community ball fields, and other City facilities. We also share responsibility with Caltrans for lights on the freeway off/on ramps that intersect city streets.
Work to upgrade current streetlights to light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is currently underway. A complete description and timeline of that effort can be seen in the "Street Lights Upgrade Grp 19-01" CIP project page.
