Maningrida Local Authority invests in community lighting

West Arnhem’s Local Authorities continue to raise and pursue matters of importance in their respective communities.

Maningrida Local Authority members have previously raised the subject of increasing overall safety in the community, and continued with the expansion with an effective solution to invest in additional solar street lighting at identified locations across the community.  West Arnhem Regional Council has been undertaking the work to install additional solar lights at the following locations:

• Takeaway stores adjacent to Council Office
• Ceremonial Grounds

Additional solar lights are scheduled to be installed at:

• School basketball courts
• Bottom Camp road
• Community town park

Solar LED lighting was identified as the most cost-effective solution to increase community safety at these locations with the lights featuring movement detection. Thank you to the Local Authority for funding this important community project.
