Answer
My Department is already committed to the use of energy efficient Extra Low Voltage traffic signal equipment that incorporates the use of LEDs with 44% of traffic signals currently utilising this technology.
All new traffic signal installations and upgrade sites are equipped with LED as standard and a programme is underway, subject to funding, to replace all remaining halogen bulb sites.
