(Summary description) Road lighting is an indispensable part of urban construction. Setting lighting on both sides of the road not only illuminates pedestrians and vehicles, but also reduces the fatigue of drivers and ensures road traffic safety. In other countries, some public lighting in cities is also included in road lighting. The lighting of streets, highways, bridges and other places belongs to road lighting. Road lighting should first meet the requirements of car drivers to accurately identify various conditions on the road when driving at night, to respond to obstacles in time, to avoid traffic accidents, and to reduce drivers' visual fatigue. Since there is a certain minimum brightness difference between the surface of the object and the road surface, the object can be perceived, so the average road surface brightness is an important indicator. According to the test, the average road brightness value should be 1.5~2.0 candela per square meter. It is divided into the brightness uniformity of the whole road surface and the longitudinal brightness uniformity. The former represents the brightness uniformity that affects the driver's comfort; the latter represents the brightness uniformity that affects the visibility of obstacles. According to the specific road and environment, the lighting device and installation method should be selected reasonably to achieve the purpose of good lighting effect and energy saving. Lighting fixtures should have a reasonable light distribution so that they can be effectively directed at the illuminated object, limit glare, and protect the light source. In the past, incandescent lamps were mainly used as lighting sources, and high-efficiency gas discharge lamps are now used, such as fluorescent high-pressure mercury lamps with improved light color, high and low pressure sodium lamps and metal halide lamps. Installation methods include cantilever type, suspension cable type and multi-lamp combination type.
