I think it depends on the use. I think the lighting of the path in the Brittingham Park area is about right, given that it is used by pedestrian, joggers as well as cyclists, year round.
The same holds true for the SW path, although it would probably be best to direct the light toward the pavement better to avoid lighting people's backyards. Certain stretches of the SW path need to be lit better, in my opinion, such as the area between Odana Rd. and Midvale. It gets real dark on that section, as oppose to other sections east of that stretch that do get some light from the neighboring homes. ============================================================ > What do you folks think? At what point does lighting a bike path become light pollution? How much is too much? Obviously, we want the path to be safe, but the neighboring houses want to not have lights shining in bedroom windows and we don't want to pay for the power for unnecessary lighting and poles. Got a rule of thumb? Examples of under- lit sections and over-lit sections and sections that are just right? > ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
