Keeping motorists in the dark

If you have been on parts of the Toulouse rocade (ring road) these last few nights you may have noticed that there has been no lighting. This was due to an experiment to see what effect it has on motorists if the major routes have no or low lighting. The benefits to the operators include cost savings; to the public less light pollution and nuisance to those living close by.
The results of the study will be published by the end of the year and could lead to all the lamps being turned off in 2016.
