BACKGROUND The LED Replacement Program is the third phase of a five-year program to replace incandescent traffic signal lamps with energy-efficient LED modules and install pedestrian countdown modules at 30 intersections out of 176 existing signalized intersections.

This amount, in addition to the energy savings, will repay the cost of installation within four years.
