LED Highway Lighting Systems for Highways, Expressways and Major Road Networks

LED Highway Lighting Systems for Highways, Expressways and Major Road Networks

LIKELITE provides LED Highway Lighting Solutions for highway, expressway and major roadway infrastructure projects requiring reliable illumination, engineering design and large-scale project supply.

Our highway lighting approach combines LED highway luminaires, lighting design, onsite measurement, photometric simulation, roadway layout, technical documentation and project installation support. The objective is to establish a practical lighting system based on roadway conditions, mounting arrangements, required illumination and project specifications.

For projects with demanding outdoor conditions, LIKELITE can configure highway lighting systems using high-efficiency LED technology, IP66 protection, aluminum-alloy housings, surge protection and engineering design support.

Highway Lighting Solution Requirements

Highway Lighting Projects require more than selecting a luminaire with a specified wattage.

A complete highway lighting solution may need to address:

  • Roadway geometry

  • Lane configuration

  • Pole height and spacing

  • Mounting position

  • Required illumination

  • Lighting uniformity

  • Glare considerations

  • Traffic conditions

  • Outdoor environmental conditions

  • Electrical infrastructure

  • Surge protection

  • Luminaire efficiency

  • Maintenance requirements

  • Local compliance

  • Project installation

LIKELITE works with EPC contractors, engineering companies, municipal procurement teams, lighting distributors and bulk project buyers to develop lighting configurations according to the specific requirements of each roadway project.

This configuration provides a practical reference for highway lighting procurement and engineering evaluation. Final wattage, optical distribution, mounting height and spacing should be confirmed through project-specific lighting calculations.

Highway Lighting Design

Lighting design is an essential part of a highway lighting solution.

LIKELITE can support project teams with:

  • Lighting and Circuitry Design

  • Onsite Metering

  • DIALux Evo Layout

  • LitePro DLX Layout

  • AutoCAD Layout

  • AGi32 Layout

  • Project Installation

The design process can evaluate the relationship between luminaire power, optical distribution, mounting height, pole spacing and roadway geometry before the lighting system is installed.

This allows project teams to review the proposed configuration based on engineering requirements rather than relying only on catalogue specifications.

DIALux-Based Roadway Lighting Evaluation

For highway projects, photometric simulation can be used to establish a preliminary lighting configuration.

The design workflow may include:

Roadway Data → Pole Layout → Luminaire Selection → Mounting Parameters → Photometric Calculation → Illumination Review → Optimization → Final Layout

DIALux Evo, LitePro DLX, AutoCAD and AGi32 can be incorporated into the design workflow according to project requirements.

Typical engineering outputs may include:

  • Luminaire positioning

  • Pole spacing

  • Lighting distribution

  • Roadway illumination

  • Uniformity evaluation

  • Calculation grids

  • Lighting layout drawings

  • Technical documentation

Actual lighting values should be determined from the final project geometry and calculation results.

150 lm/W High-Efficiency LED Technology

The specified LED Highway Light configuration provides a luminous efficiency of 150 lm/W.

Combined with an 80W rated power, this configuration is designed to provide efficient roadway illumination while controlling installed electrical load.

The specified CREE SMD2835 LED light source supports the high-efficiency configuration.

For project evaluation, LED efficacy should be considered together with:

  • Optical distribution

  • Roadway width

  • Pole height

  • Pole spacing

  • Required illumination

  • Uniformity

  • Operating schedule

  • Environmental conditions

This engineering approach avoids selecting wattage independently from the actual roadway application.

IP66 Highway Lighting Protection

Highway luminaires are installed in exposed outdoor environments and therefore require appropriate protection against dust and water ingress.

The reference LIKELITE configuration uses an IP66-rated housing.

The aluminum-alloy lamp body provides a robust enclosure for highway applications, while the ALU + PC optical configuration supports the luminaire's outdoor lighting structure.

The specified operating temperature range is:

-20°C to 45°C

Final environmental suitability should be evaluated against the actual project location and local climatic conditions.

10KV Surge Protection

Highway lighting infrastructure can be exposed to electrical transients and outdoor surge events.

The specified LIKELITE configuration includes 10KV surge protection and 1.5KV voltage resistance.

For large roadway projects, surge protection should be considered as part of the overall electrical design rather than as an isolated product specification.

LIKELITE can coordinate the lighting and circuitry design according to the project's electrical infrastructure and installation requirements.

21% Energy Efficiency Improvement

The supplied Dubai highway lighting reference indicates an energy efficiency improvement of 21%.

For highway lighting upgrades, energy performance can be influenced by several factors, including:

  • LED luminaire efficiency

  • Existing lighting technology

  • Luminaire wattage

  • Optical distribution

  • Pole spacing

  • Lighting operating schedule

  • Lighting control strategy

  • Required illumination levels

  • Maintenance condition

Therefore, the 21% figure should be treated as the stated result associated with the supplied reference configuration rather than as a universal performance guarantee for every highway project.

LIKELITE can evaluate the existing and proposed lighting systems to establish project-specific energy-saving expectations.

Highway Lighting Upgrade Process

LIKELITE's highway lighting solution can be organized into a practical engineering workflow:

1. Project Requirement
