Derby's Street Lighting PFI Contract

Seq. No. Lamp Number Location Lamp Type Watt Isolation Point
1 30399 O/S 2/4 SXPL2 35

The following photographs were taken on Sunday, 19th September 2010.

The first column from Wood Road was an unsleeved Stanton 7 concrete column with swan neck bracket and top-entry Thorn Beta 5 lantern. By the time that these photographs were taken, a large percentage of the unsleeved concrete stock around Derby had been replaced, and even sleeved columns were fast becoming a thing of the past. Notice that a gap is appearing between the bracket joint above the ladder bars - even without the PFI in place, this column's days would be numbered.

The second (and third) column had been sleeved, however.
