Up to the end of 2018, some 1,400 luminaires of the more than 4,500 existing in the municipality (30%) of 125-watt mercury vapor and 100-watt and 150-watt sodium vapor reactors had been replaced by the latest LED technology devices. power, depending on the height of the lamp: those of 5 meters have been changed by luminaires of 31 watts, those of 7 meters by 55 watts and 9 meters by 70 watts, in the following streets and neighborhoods:
