Solar-powered LEDs to light the way along popular South Park walking trail

Strolling down a popular pedestrian trail in South Park (Pennsylvania) will no longer just be a daytime affair.

Work has begun on a project to illuminate a roughly 2-mile portion of the trail running along Corrigan Drive between Library and Brownsville roads with 122 energy-efficient solar-powered lights.

County parks department officials wanted to improve safety along the path with lighting because it is open daily from dawn until midnight and frequently is used by people early in the morning and in the late evening.
