LED Highway Lighting Solutions for Roadway Infrastructure

LIKELITE provides engineered LED Highway Lighting Solutions for highway upgrades, roadway rehabilitation, interchange improvements, tunnels, ramps, bridges, and other large-scale road infrastructure projects.

Our scope covers the complete lighting process from onsite metering and roadway lighting design to DIALux Evo simulation, product selection, compliance documentation, production, and project installation.

For highway projects, the objective is not simply to replace existing lamps with LED fixtures. The lighting system must provide appropriate illumination, uniformity, glare control, electrical protection, environmental resistance, energy efficiency, and long-term operational reliability.

LIKELITE works with EPC contractors, engineering companies, lighting distributors, municipal procurement teams, and infrastructure project owners to develop practical LED highway lighting solutions based on project requirements.


Highway Lighting Engineering Scope

A highway lighting project normally involves multiple technical requirements that must be evaluated together.

Roadway Lighting Assessment

LIKELITE can support onsite assessment and existing-lighting evaluation before equipment selection.

Typical assessment items include:

  • Existing luminaire type and wattage

  • Pole height and spacing

  • Road width and lane configuration

  • Mounting position

  • Existing electrical infrastructure

  • Roadway lighting condition

  • Required illumination level

  • Energy consumption

  • Replacement requirements

  • Local electrical and lighting standards

The purpose is to establish the technical basis for the LED highway lighting design rather than selecting a luminaire only according to wattage.

Lighting and Circuitry Design

The lighting design considers roadway geometry, mounting conditions, electrical requirements, luminaire performance, and project-specific lighting targets.

LIKELITE can provide:

  • Lighting and circuitry design

  • AutoCAD layout

  • DIALux Evo layout

  • AGi32 layout

  • LitePro DLX layout

  • Product configuration

  • Installation recommendations

The final configuration can be adjusted according to road classification, pole arrangement, required lighting performance, and local project specifications.


LED Highway Lighting Design Process

01 — Project Requirement Review

Project drawings, road information, existing lighting data, electrical conditions, technical specifications, and applicable regional standards are reviewed before the lighting solution is developed.

02 — Onsite Metering and Existing-System Assessment

Where required, onsite measurements are used to understand the existing lighting installation and establish the baseline for the upgrade.

03 — Roadway Lighting Layout

Pole locations, mounting heights, spacing, road geometry, luminaire orientation, and lighting distribution are incorporated into the roadway layout.

04 — DIALux Evo / AGi32 / LitePro DLX Simulation

Lighting simulation is used to evaluate the proposed configuration before production.

Typical design parameters may include:

  • Average illuminance

  • Lighting uniformity

  • Luminaire spacing

  • Mounting height

  • Beam distribution

  • Roadway geometry

  • Light loss factors

  • Energy consumption

05 — Luminaire Configuration

The LED highway light is configured according to the project requirements, including wattage, optical distribution, LED source, driver, surge protection, housing, CCT, and control requirements.

06 — Compliance and Documentation

Applicable certifications and technical documentation are prepared according to the destination market and project specification.

07 — Production and Quality Control

Production follows the approved technical configuration. Product parameters, electrical components, housing, optical system, and functional performance are checked before shipment.

08 — Project Installation

LIKELITE can provide installation guidance and project installation support according to the agreed project scope.


LED Highway Light Configuration

For large-scale roadway projects, luminaire selection should be based on the complete lighting system rather than wattage alone.

A typical LIKELITE LED Highway Light configuration can include:

SpecificationProject Configuration
ProductLED Highway Lights
Rated Power100W
Input VoltageAC230V
Frequency50Hz
LED SourceCREE SMD3030
Luminous Efficiency130 lm/W

HousingAluminum Alloy
MaterialALU + PC
Lifespan30,000 hours
Working Temperature-20°C to +45°C
Power SupplyAC

BrandLIKELITE

The final luminaire specification should be confirmed against the lighting calculation, road geometry, local regulations, and project technical requirements.


European Highway Lighting Compliance

For Highway Lighting Projects in European markets, electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, energy-related requirements, environmental restrictions, and product conformity must be considered during product selection.

The Brussels highway upgrade reference configuration includes:

  • CE — LVD 2014/35/EU

  • CE — EMC 2014/30/EU

  • CE — ErP 2009/125/EC

  • RoHS 2011/65/EU

  • ENEC

Compliance documentation can be incorporated into the technical submittal package for EPC contractors, engineering consultants, distributors, and project procurement teams.


Energy Efficiency for Highway Upgrades

LED highway lighting upgrades can reduce energy consumption while maintaining or improving the required roadway lighting performance.

The Brussels highway lighting upgrade reference achieved an energy-saving improvement of 24% compared with the previous lighting configuration.

For each project, energy performance should be evaluated together with:

  • Existing luminaire wattage

  • Operating hours

  • Number of fixtures

  • Lighting requirements

  • LED fixture wattage

  • Lighting control strategy

  • Maintenance requirements

  • Expected operating period

This approach allows the project owner or EPC contractor to evaluate the upgrade based on actual project conditions rather than a general LED energy-saving percentage.
