Derby's Street Lighting PFI Contract
Limes Avenue, Mickleover
The columns being removed on this road were:
Seq. No. | Lamp Number | Location | Lamp Type | Watt | Isolation Point |
1 | 90612 | FP BETWEEN NOS 5/9 | SXPL3 | 35 | |
2 | 90613 | OPP NOS 15/17 | SXPL3 | 35 | |
3 | 90614 | F/PATH O/S NOS 21/22 | SXPL3 | 35 |
The following photographs were taken on Sunday, 11th April and Sunday, 18th April 2010. Not all of the columns here are under the ownership of the Street Lighting department - some are owned by the Housing Association, and thus will probably not be removed under the PFI.
The first column ended its days with a Thorn Beta 5 fitted. A GEC Z5698U would have been installed here originally.
One of the new columns was installed further down the footpath from the previous installation:
Another column supporting a Beta 5 was visible near its replacement. This Beta 5 is likely to be original to the column.
A sole-surviving Z5698U existed on the footpath leading to The Hollow.
Another column was also installed on the footpath. This supported a Thorn Gamma 6 lantern. The use of an unpainted column here signifies that this installation belongs to the Housing Association.
An identical installation existed at the other side of the parking area:
