LED lighting may use less energy than high intensity discharge (HID) lamps commonly used in roadway lighting. Research will be done on the current state of technology in LED roadway lighting and identify the best commercially available LED roadway luminaires for IDOT lighting applications. Obtain luminaires for field testing, field verify photometry, and calculate results of their performance for typical IDOT roadways. Compare LED performance to existing light sources and provide economic justification for or against the use of LED roadway lighting.

<strong>Quarterly</strong> Progress <strong>Report</strong> Meeting Dates - Minutes Available? 8/25/2009 - Yes 9/22/2009 - No 3/17/2010 - No 12/7/2010 - Yes 3/29/2011 - Yes 12/8/2011 - Yes Progress & Significant Results This Quarter: Based on feedback provided at the meeting of TRP on Dec 8, 2011, two reports were prepared. The first report is contains the background information and past study finding. The second report is about the finding from field testing and cost analysis. The reports were submitted to TRP for review and approval. Limited field data on light level at the Post Oak Rest Area on I 70 near Effingham was collected in January 2012. The results were send to IDOT. Anticipated Work Next Quarter: Obtain feedback from TRP and finalize the reports.
