The Peachtree Corners City Council approved additional streetlights recently along Medlock Bridge Road between Peachtree Parkway and Spalding Drive. This section of road has a 10-foot multi-use path on the shoulder. Georgia Power recommends 12 additional cobra headlights to be mounted to existing timber poles along this segment of road in order to sufficiently light the area for pedestrians.
Additionally, the council approved 8 new lights along Lou Ivy Road to existing poles located along both sides of the road.
Adding the Medlock Bridge Road lights will cost the city an additional $13.89 per light per month, which is a total of $180.57 monthly and $2,166.84 annually. The Lou Ivy Road lights will cost the city an additional $10.37 per light per month, which is a total of $82.96 monthly and $995.52 annually. The installation cost will be absorbed into the monthly fees.
