Several parks across Windsor will be getting new lights thanks to a partnership between the city and CUPE Local 82.

Several parks across Windsor will soon be a little bit brighter thanks to a partnership between the city and CUPE Local 82.

As part of a $1-million investment to improve safety, 120 solar and 90 LED lights will soon be installed at 14 municipal parks. 

According to a release, the lights are "an affordable, low-maintenance and energy-efficient solution to illuminating pathways and multi-use trails."

Each fixture will also be equipped with a motion sensor which will only activate the light when someone is nearby.

Installation of the new environmentally friendly lights is already underway.
