| Abstract |
Fixed lighting of public ways for both drivers and pedestrians can create a nighttime environment in which people can see comfortably and can quickly and accurately identify objects on the roadway being travelled. Roadway lighting can improve traffic safety, achieve efficient traffic movement and promote the general use of the facility during darkness. The design of a roadway lighting system involves consideration of visibility, economics, esthetics, safety and environmental conditions. This paper shows estimation of horizontal illuminance and uniformity ratio by actual measurement of roadway lighting at main streets in Jejusi and evaluation of Jejusi roadway lighting conditions for modeling by computer simulation. |
