The following photographs were taken on Saturday, 13th November 2010:

Most of the outgoing columns along here were fitted with GEC Z9464 90 Watt SOX lanterns.

This new column was installed as part of an earlier scheme, when Cranmer Road was relit.

The blue (70 Lux) SC1000 photocell is evidence of this; the new lanterns installed on the Chequers Road scheme are fitted with 35 Lux cells.

These photographs were taken just in time - during my visit, the old columns were being decommissioned and the new columns powered up - a workman can be seen in the excavation around the bases of the two columns:

An integrally-geared Philips MA 90 was fitted to the next column.

A Thorn Alpha 4 followed.

The A52 dual carriageway runs parallel with Chequers Road at this point.

This Alpha 4 was fitted with a Parmar/Venture 90 Watt SOX ballast.
