NM Department of Transportation:
In May 2009 the New Mexico Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department teamed with the New Mexico Department of Transportation to begin a Recovery Act project aimed at a statewide retrofit of all incandescent traffic, warning, and pedestrian signal lamps with light emitting diode (LED) signals. The project was completed in April 2010. Thousands of new LED traffic signal lamps installed at 330 intersections throughout New Mexico will save up to 80% of energy used for conventional incandescent lights that run 24/7. The statewide retrofit is estimated to save over 4 million kilowatt hours annually. From Santa Teresa to Raton, from Shiprock to Hobbs, and in 28 other communities in between, the LED retrofit of state highway traffic intersections is already giving towns and municipalities throughout New Mexico much-reduced utility bills and big energy savings. LED traffic light arrays use 6 to 12 watts of energy per lamp (depending on the color), compared to 150 watts used by the each of the incandescent light bulbs they replaced. In addition, LED lamps are much brighter, providing improved safety for drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians, and last four to nine years longer, affording lower maintenance costs. Flashing lights used for school crossings, advance warnings, and intersections were also retrofit with LEDs at over 250 statewide locations. The communities and the number of intersections in the Recovery Act-funded project include Artesia (6), Aztec (4), Bayard (1), Bernalillo County (39), Bloomfield (2), Carlsbad (10), Clovis (25), Farmington (57), Fruitland (1), Grants (6), Hobbs (33), Kirtland (1), La Luz (1), Las Cruces (58), Los Alamos (3), Los Ranchos de Albuquerque (2), Lovington (3), Moriarty (2), Peralta (1), Portales (5), Questa (1), Raton (6), Roswell (18), Ruidoso (9), San Juan County (1), Santa Fe County (4), Santa Teresa (2), Shiprock (5), Silver City (10), Sunland Park (1), Truth or Consequences (1), Taos (10), and Tucumcari (2). Albuquerque is replacing its traffic lights under a separate program. Click here or on the map to view a larger image. |
