Streetlighting
Streetlighting improves nighttime visibility and safety on city streets, reducing accidents and enhancing security for pedestrians and drivers alike. The City of Madison Traffic Engineering Electrical Division is dedicated to maintaining and enhancing the safety and beauty of our city through effective streetlighting. Our mission is to provide reliable, energy-efficient lighting solutions that ensure safe and well-lit streets for all residents and visitors while also being sensitive to keeping our skies dark.
Our Services
Streetlight Installation
We install new streetlights in areas that need improved visibility and safety, as well as in expansion areas such as new subdivisions.
Request a New Streetlight
You can submit a request for a new streetlight using our New Light Request Form. If a new traffic streetlight installation is recommended, then the city will determine how to pay for the design and construction of the light(s) including the creation of an assessment district.
