Ahwatukee streetlights going LED next summer

Ahwatukee’s streetlights are going LED next summer. The Phoenix Street Transportation Department and its contractor, Ameresco, has scheduled Ahwatukee’s lights for conversion from Aug. 20 to Sept. 28 as part of a plan that began being implemented this week. “We’ve set big sustainability goals for the city and converting to LED streetlights brings up one step closer to meeting them,” said Mayor Greg Stanton. “Saving tax payer dollars and cutting energy costs in our city makes us a more attractive place to live and do business.”
