FRESNO, Calif. (KSEE/KGPE) – Fresno just got a bit brighter, and according to city officials, also somewhat safer.
The City of Fresno announced Tuesday that maintenance crews have upgraded the bulbs in 519 different light posts throughout the city - they say the old bulbs were switched out with new energy-efficient LED lights. They also installed new globe covers.
The upgrades were made in the Tower District, Downtown and along the foliage-dense Kearney Boulevard.
The City says the change will not only make the streets brighter but also enhance the safety of the community by enhancing visibility.
