 How the lnterstate Works for\6u
A SAFER WAY TO ILLUMINATE MAJOB ROADS
With the Interstate Luminaire poles can be placed
further from the road than with conventional
methods, thus reducing the chance of vehicular
collisions. The potential accident rate is further
"educed due to lhe exle'lded spacing
between poles.
STANDARDS PLACED WITH A 40 FOOT OFFSET
Recommended placement of poles for illurn inating
a two-lane continuous roadway with the Inierstate
is forly teet from the outside lane edge. This
exceeds the minimum distance recommended
by the Federal Highway Administration and well
out o{ the critical area oJ an out-of-control vehicle.
WIDE 280 FOOT POLF SPACING
When mounted with a40'offset and a 40' mounting
height, 200 watt high pressure sodium lnterstates
can be spaced at 280' intervals to meet minimum
illumination requirements [.6 average maintained
FC level with 3:.1 uniformity) instead of the normal
'180 to 220 foot spacings of conventional 200
wati high pressure sodium fixtures. Only 36 poles
per mile are required to light both sides of a
four-lane divlded highway-as cornpared with the
usual 54 poles. Three and four-lane roads, inter-
changes and long ramps can be illuminated
efficiently with fewer luminaires also.
(See illuslration, page 5.)
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COST
SAVINGS
There are major cost savings through fewer jix-
tures, iewer poles, and no mast arms J lf a pole were
ever knocked down, glass and debris would not
fallon the roadway or endanger a following veh icle
since the !nterstate mounts on top of the pole
4
thidy to torty feet f rom the roadway. With fewer
accidents, pole and fixture replacement expenses
are greatly reduced.
OPTICALLY SUPERIOR NEW LIGHTING
CONCEPT
ITT Outdoor Lighting offers a whole new lighting
concept with the lnierstaie Luminaire. The critical
design oJ the {inely tuned reflector, refractor, and
lamp mountinq methods maximizes the utilization
of raw lamp output, thereby permitting the offsei
location and greater efficiencies. The beam
geometrics are such ihat a rectangle of light is
projected on the roadwaywithout distracting pools
oi brightness".
REDUCED GLARE MEANS DRIVER SAFETY
By moving the light source from the driver's direct
line of vision there is a sig n if icant reduction in glare.
This is particularly noticeable on wet pavement
where conventionai overhead luminaires produce
bright, highly distracting streaks of light. This is
prevented bV the anctle iqht from the lnterstate
strikes the road surface. Other characteristics of
the svstem are such that greatest reduction in both
discomfoding glare and disabling veiling bright-
ness are achieved where it ls needed most-in the
inslde lane.
MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS IN ESTHETICS
Many aderial roads look like a {orest of polestothe
on-coming motorist-the Interstate drastically
redLCes rlis clutter. Thete is a t'iTrn-c', nore
pleasinq appearance io lighting systems without
mast arms. And poles become a less distracting
element of the landscape when they are rernoved
frorn roadway edges and out of the line of
normal vision.
