The City of Salt Lake City, UT

The Street Light Implementation Plan project in Salt Lake City was driven by a commitment to implement a comprehensive strategy informed by the principles outlined in the previous Street Light Master Plan. This initiative emphasized the integration of key elements of urban planning and citywide mapping efforts to revitalize street lighting infrastructure across the city.

At its core, the project aimed to translate the guiding principles of the Street Light Master Plan into actionable strategies for enhancing street lighting infrastructure. Collaborating closely with the City and community stakeholders, the project employed a series of mapping efforts to assess the existing street light system and identify areas in need of improvement.

Through meticulous mapping efforts, detailed GIS Priority Maps were developed to pinpoint priority areas for street lighting enhancements. These maps served as invaluable tools for decision-making, enabling stakeholders to allocate resources effectively and ensure equitable distribution of lighting resources across different neighborhoods and districts.

Furthermore, the project encompassed a comprehensive audit of the existing street lighting inventory, enriching the city's GIS database with detailed information on over 18,000 streetlight fixtures. This data-driven approach provided valuable insights into the current state of the street lighting infrastructure and laid the groundwork for informed decision-making in the implementation process.

By aligning with the tenets of street light master planning and leveraging citywide mapping efforts, the project not only streamlined planning and implementation but also fostered transparency, collaboration, and community engagement. This holistic approach ensured that the Street Light Implementation Plan accurately reflected the needs and priorities of Salt Lake City residents, ultimately paving the way for a safer, more sustainable, and inclusive urban environment.
