The New Town authorities have decided to install LED lights across all three action areas, an official of the New Town Kolkata Development Authority (NKDA) said on Tuesday.
The LED streetlights will be fitted along the sidewalks of all block roads of New Town, the official said.
Although nearly all the main roads of New Town, including the 10.5km-long Major Arterial Road (MAR) that connects New Town with Salt Lake on the one end and the airport on the other, are lit up by LED lights, there are places where sodium vapour lamps as well as CFL lights and tube lights are in use.
