Duke to install new LED lights

Duke Energy began installing Friday new LED street lights outside two of Cincinnati Public Schools' biggest high schools after a string of serious crashes sent at least three students to the hospital this month. The new lights will illuminate Ferguson Road outside Western Hills University High School and Gilbert A. Dater High School in West Price Hill. "No child should ever have to fear for his or her life when simply trying to walk to school," said City Council member P.G. Sittenfeld in a news release Friday. "There are a number of solutions we can and will implement, and I am glad we could deliver improved lighting on a quick timetable."
