 How the Interstate Works for\6u
A SAFER WAY TO ILLUMINATE MAJOB ROADS
With the lnterstate Luminaire poles can be placed
further from the road than with conventional
methods, thus reducing the chance of vehicular
collisions. The potential accidnt rate is further
reduced oJe ro the ext9n666 9p6a;an
between poles
STANDARDS PLACED WITH A 40 FOOT OFFSET
Recommended placemeni of poles for illuminating
a two-lane continuous roadway with the lnterstate
is forly ieet from the outside lane edge. This
exceeds the minimum distance recommended
by the Federal Hiqhwav Admlnistration and well
out of the critical area of an out-of-control vehicle.
WIDE 280 FOOT POLE SPACING
When mounted with a40'offsetand a 40' mounting
helght, 200 watt high pressure sodium lnterstates
can be spaced at 280' intervals to meet minirnum
i llumination requiren'rents (.6 average ma;niained
FC levei with 3:1 uniformity) instead of the normal
1801o 22A foot spacings of conventional 200
watt high pressure sodium fixtures. Only 36 poles
per mile are required to light both sides of a
four-lane divided highway-as compared with the
usual 54 poles. Three and four-lane roads. inter-
changes and long rarnps can be illuminated
efficiently with fewer Iuminaires also.
(See illustration, page 5 )
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COST
SAVINGS
Jhere are major cost savings through fewer lix-
tures, fewer poles, and no mast arms I lf a pole were
ever knocked down, glass and debris would not
fallon the roadway or endanger a following veh icle
since the lnterstate mounts on top ot the pole
4
thirty to forty feet f rom the roadway. With fewer
accidents, pole and fixture replacement expenses
are greatly reduced.
OPTICALLY SUPEFIOR NEW LIGHTTNG
CONCEPT
ITT Outdoor Lighting ofiers a whole new liqhtinq
concept with the lnterstate Luminaire. The critical
design of the finely tuned reflector, reiractor, and
lamp mounting meihods maximizes the utilization
of raw lamp output, thereby permitting the offset
location and greater efficiencies. The beam
geometrics are such that a rectangle of lighi is
projected on the roadway without distracting "pools
of brightness .
REDUCED GLARE MEANS DRIVEB SAFETY
By moving the light source from the driver's direct
line of vision there ;s a signif icant reduction in glare.
This is particularly noticeable on wet pavement
where conventional overhead luminaires produce
bright, highly distracting streaks of light. This is
prevented by the angle light lrom the lnterstate
strikes the road surface. Other characteristics of
the system are such that greatest reduction in both
discomforling glare and disablinq veilinq briqht-
ness are achieved where it is needed most-in the
inside lane.
MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS IN ESTHETICS
Many aderlal roads look like a forest of polestothe
on-coming motorist-the lnterstate drastically
rAduces Ihis clulter T1e'e is a tr mmer rrore
pleasing appearance to lighting systems without
mast arTns. And poles becorne a less distracting
element of the landscape when they are removed
{rom roadway edqes and out o{ the ltne of
normal vision.
