Street Lighting

The Sunshine Coast Regional District (SCRD) first established the regional street lights service for the provision of regional lighting of intersections and areas of public use for all electoral areas in 1971.

Since then, several community specific street light service bylaws have been adopted with a total inventory of 173 street lights.

All street lights are energy-efficient LEDs that help improve public safety in our community by increasing the visibility of roads at night, as well as help reduce light pollution. LEDs also last longer and require less maintenance.

Ownership of the infrastructure along with the responsibility for repairs and maintenance is retained by BC Hydro, however, the SCRD is responsible for the associated operational costs and also serves as the conduit for customer service issues.

If you have any questions or concerns please call 604-885-6800 or email info@scrd.ca.
