BACKGROUND
In 2002, the California Energy Commission adopted standards for vehicular traffic signal lamps
and modules, adding standards for pedestrian lamps in 2004. The state mandate now requires
traffic signals to be energy efficient by utilizing L.E.D. technology.
This program will replace incandescent traffic signal lamps with L.E.D. technology throughout
the City. The 2009-10 effort is the fourth phase of the 5 -year program that will replace signal
lamps with L.E.D. modules at 24 intersections identified on the attached vicinity map.
The existing incandescent traffic signal lamps utilize 150 watts per lamp. Once the incandescent
lamps are replaced with L.E.D. technology, the wattage will be reduced to 10 watts per lamp,
resulting in an average energy consumption reduction of 93 percent. Staff anticipates that next
year's 2010-11 replacement effort will be the fifth and final phase. Upon completion of the
replacement program, the energy savings program scope will change from replacement of
incandescent bulbs to maintenance of Light Emitting Diodes.
On October 13, 2009, the following bids were received for this project:

and miscellaneous project administration costs.
