The street lighting and stormwater system in this area have reached the end of their useful life. The light poles are over 30 years old, and the direct-buried cable connecting them is brittle, often requiring repairs. The system is controlled by three separate controllers, resulting in monthly service fees from Evergy on top of electricity costs. The project will not only upgrade the aging infrastructure but also allow for a more efficient layout of the street lighting circuits, reducing the number of controllers needed for the area.
The project will install new streetlight poles and fixtures, underground cable and conduit and a new controller. The project will also replace or line the existing stormwater system to restore its condition to acceptable levels.
