Tupelo converts streetlights over to LED

City utility workers in Tupelo are in the process of upgrading the city's streetlights by replacing their current high pressure sodium bulbs with LEDs to save electricity costs and reduce the number of bulbs replaced in the current system.

After completing all of Main Street, the workers will then install lights on North Gloster Street and South Gloster street.

The town estimates that he and the utility workers are around 20% completed converting the city’s streetlights.
