The Challenge
Residents and local councilors of Melksham East, a community in the parish of Melksham, identified a need for additional street lighting, especially around the estate surrounding Skylark Road and the footpath in the playing field west of Forest & Sandridge School. The lack of lighting in these areas was a safety concern, particularly for children going to and from the school and for residents moving around the estate in the evening.
The Solution
Sunlite Group was selected to install solar street lighting in these areas. The project was supported by local stakeholders, including the landowner, the local school, the police, and, importantly, the residents themselves, who had expressed the need for more lighting during a public consultation. A total of 21 solar street lights were installed, significantly improving safety and visibility in the area.
Outcome
The installation of the lights was met with praise from the community. Residents noted that the new lights improved safety and usability of the pathways around the estate during the evening hours. The project was considered a success, with particular credit given to the local councillors who championed the cause.
This case study demonstrates Sunlite Group’s ability to provide effective off-grid solar lighting solutions that meet the specific needs of a community.
