At the end of December, city workers began the process of upgrading the lights throughout Trail. The work is part of a year-long project, replacing around 900 streetlights with LED Cobra head lights. The new lights are brighter and have twice the life expectancy of the current bulbs. The project is expected to be completed in early 2016. The downtown area, the first phase of the light replacement project, has been completed, and crews are currently working in Glenmerry. Next up are Sunningdale, Miral Heights, East Trail, West Trail and then the leftover lights, in that order, over the next year.
