Everyone expects lighting to reduce crime and increase safety. However if lighting is poorly designed or installed, it can have the opposite affect.
A straight forward application of "Lighting Standards" can result in hazardous situations. Good engineering judgement and common sense must be used in the selection and installation of lights. Otherwise, expensive light installations will produce less than desirable affects.
The RASC Light Pollution Abatement Committee has assembled a library of lighting bylaws that have been implemented in municipalities across Canada. You can find this collection on our Public Google Drive, organized by province and accompanied by an index of every item to help you navigate the folder.
