Brighter ≠ Safer: Rethinking Street Lighting Design
There’s a common myth in urban design: that brighter lighting equals safer streets.
The reality? Over-illumination can create harsh glare, deep shadows, and reduce night-time visibility – especially for older adults and cyclists.
As an independent street lighting design consultancy, with no ties to any specific manufacturer, we at MMA Lighting Consultancy Ltd design with precision, not intensity.
That means:
• Uniform lighting levels
• Low glare fittings
• Targeted illumination where it’s needed most
Better for safety, Better for people, Better for the planet
Let’s stop lighting for visibility and start lighting for clarity. Get in touch with us at info@mma-consultancy.co.uk or visit our website www.mma-consultancy.co.uk for further details on the services that we can provide.
