GMDA Initiates Installation of Smart Streetlights for Sector Safety

The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) has commenced the installation of smart streetlights across various sectors in Gurugram. This initiative aims to bolster safety measures and improve overall urban infrastructure in the city. The smart streetlights are equipped with advanced features such as automated lighting control based on movement and ambient light levels, enhancing energy efficiency and reducing operational costs.

By deploying these intelligent lighting solutions, GMDA intends to create well-lit environments that deter crime and enhance visibility, particularly in areas prone to security concerns. The initiative also aligns with Gurugram's efforts towards becoming a smarter and more sustainable city, leveraging technology to optimise urban services.

The smart streetlights will not only provide better illumination but also contribute to reducing the city's carbon footprint through efficient energy usage. GMDA officials have highlighted the importance of these installations in transforming Gurugram into a safer and more attractive place to live and work.

This project reflects GMDA's commitment to leveraging innovative solutions for urban development challenges, aiming to enhance the quality of life for residents and visitors alike. As the installation progresses, stakeholders anticipate significant improvements in safety and environmental sustainability across Gurugram's sectors.
