Derby's Street Lighting PFI Contract

Liversage Road, City Centre

The equipment being removed consisted of the following items in 1997:

Seq. No. Lamp Number Location Lamp Type Watt Isolation Point
1 30208 1ST FROM LONDON RD SXPL2 55  
2 30209 ADJ OPP LIVERSAGE PL SXPL2 55 Y
3 30210 CNR CARRINGTON ST SXPL3 55  

The following photographs were taken on Saturday, 30th October 2010:

GEC Z9538 lanterns made up two of the three lanterns due for removal along this road.

The lantern had been fitted with a bowl from a Thorn Beta 2. Owing to the completely different methods employed for securing a Beta 2 bowl in comparison to a Z9538 bowl, two lengths of insulation tape were employed to hold the assembly together.

The following Z9538 still retained a correct bowl.

Yes, that looks much better!

The third column ended its days supporting a WRTL Arc lantern. The Arc probably replaced another Z9538.

The Arc featured a curved glass cover.
