Chandigarh Municipal Corporation Invites Bids for 10-Year Street Lighting Modernisation
Chandigarh Municipal Corporation plans a 10-year project to modernise its street lighting system by replacing existing LED lights with advanced, energy-efficient models. The initiative includes deploying a centralised control and monitoring system integrated with the city's command centre, installing individual light controllers on main roads, and strengthening electrical infrastructure. A private partner will be selected through competitive bidding to manage installation, operation, and maintenance, aiming to reduce electricity use and CO2 emissions while enhancing citizen complaint management.
