Yunex Traffic technology upgrades to help reduce CO2 emissions across Liverpool

ongoing

Forming part of a Transforming Cities Funding project, Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) has awarded a contract to Yunex Traffic to upgrade over 750 traffic signal sites across the region. The programme will see existing halogen traffic signals upgraded with Yunex Traffic’s LED central light source (CLS) technology, which consumes less energy while delivering improved visibility and reliability. This solution is set to deliver energy and cost savings of around 75%, as well as significantly reducing the need for regular maintenance visits to replace and clean lamps. It is estimated that each year, the new traffic signals will generate savings of over 1,300 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) and energy savings of nearly £400,000.
