New Decorative Lighting to Shine in Ocean City

Ocean City ia installing new decorative lighting in the downtown. The new lighting would not only illuminate the shopping district, but also replace the fixtures that are not tall enough to provide adequate height for the swag, bows and garland, that create the festive atmosphere each year.

City Council approved a resolution at Thursday night’s Council meeting to go out to bid for light improvements along Asbury Avenue from Eighth to 10th Streets.

The project would cost an estimated $1 million for every two blocks of new lighting.
