EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In 2001 a Lighting Strategy Report was prepared for the City of Fremantle. Since then Australian Standards for street lighting have been updated and technology has developed. This Lighting Strategy incorporates the current Australian Standards and technology updates. It has been shown that road lighting improves road safety and also improves security for the community. It has also been shown that the cost of lighting improvements is a small fraction of the benefit to the community. The State Coroner has made two recommendations to local government on street lighting. At roundabouts, reference is made to AS/NZS 115.1.3 and that “roundabouts need lighting additional to the road lighting on the approach roads”. For roads, the Coroner recommends “illumination…..at least in excess of Australian New Zealand Standards”. This report recommends improving the existing road lighting to Australian Standards whilst considering options to reduce energy consumption, maintenance costs and other costs associated with road lighting. The report includes a Lighting Master Plan graphically showing the recommended categories of lighting in terms of AS/NZS1158 for each road. The categories of lighting have been recommended after consideration of community security and road safety. The report generally recommends the use of standard Western Power functional lighting equipment. However, where decorative road lighting is proposed, the report recommends rationalisation of the luminaires (light fittings), poles, and the colours of these items, to simplify maintenance and reduce repair costs. These recommendations cover roads that already have decorative road lighting. For most minor roads, this report recommends upgrading the Western Power luminaires from the existing 80 Watt mercury vapour street lights to the 42 Watt compact fluorescent street lights. This will reduce the street light energy consumption whilst improving the light output for road safety and security. These 42 Watt compact fluorescent street lights comply with Australian Standards when spaced at 80 metres. To assist budgeting, this report includes a comprehensive schedule of cost estimates listing each road. The estimated cost to upgrade the street lighting in the whole City is $15 m.

LIGHTING STRATEGY REPORT
1 INTRODUCTION
In 1999, the City of Fremantle had a “Security Risk Management Study” prepared by Corpsec International Pty. Ltd. The City’s Director Urban Management subsequently prepared a report “Safety and Security within the City of Fremantle”. The City has an area of 18.7 sq.km with 176 km of sealed roads, and a population of 24 276 in 11 216 dwellings. This report excludes land controlled by the Fremantle Port Authority (Rous Head and the Inner Harbour) and by the Department of Transport (Fishing Boat Harbour including Mews Road). This Lighting Strategy Report recommends light-technical parameters such as lighting levels, uniformities and colours. The Lighting Strategy Report also suggests means of achieving the light technical parameters and submits schedules of cost estimates. While illustrations of typical lighting hardware are submitted, definitive specification of light fittings, poles and other hardware is suggested when the installation of lighting is being designed and documented. In particular, this revision of the Lighting Strategy Report is in response to the City of Fremantle Purchase Order 59946 and our proposal of 19th March 2009.
2 BASIS
The Lighting Master Plan is based on the following sources: AS/NZS1158.3.1:2005 Pedestrian area lighting AS/NZS1158.1:2005 Roadlighting Perth Metropolitan Area Functional Road Hierarchy AS2890.1:1993 Off road Car Parks Fremantle Verandas Lighting Report - 31-7-2000 (Sage Consulting Engineers) Fremantle City Centre Urban Design Strategy – August 1996 City of Fremantle: Safety and Security within the City of Fremantle 29/09/99 Corpsec: Security Risk Management Study - March 1999 Discussions with Geoff Broad, Ian James and Geoff Webster of the City of Fremantle during 2001. Discussions with Ian James, Daniel Sharp and Ben Lee of the City of Fremantle during 2009. Observations of lighting on 8-9-2009 An outline of the Australian Standards is contained in Appendix D along with comparable British and American standards. The Corpsec Report (1999) mentions poor lighting, light level readings of zero, trees obstructing light, light not being directed on to pedestrian paths, and the direct positive correlations between the amount of lighting and the amount of crime. An extract of the report is contained in Appendix J.

The report on Safety and Security with the City of Fremantle (1999) supports the Corpsec Report, reports on the “Safer Cities by Design Conference” and mentions Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED). Under the heading “Lighting Strategy”, the report recommends a Lighting Study, vegetation management, maintenance of streetlighting, directing light to pedestrian areas, and upgrading of streetlights to Australian Standards preferably with “white light”. An extract of the report is contained in Appendix K. The Urban Design Strategy (1996) makes frequent mention of lighting and contains recommendations to improve the quality and quantity of lighting, and to provide “priority night routes for pedestrians”. An extract of the report is contained in Appendix L.
3 EXISTING LIGHTING
Most of the existing lighting is provided by Western Power by means of steel poles where power is underground and streetlights on timber power poles where power is overhead. The lamps are predominantly mercury vapour with some high pressure sodium.
OBSOLETE STREET LIGHT
Parts of the city centre have old “Novalux” streetlights, mostly with 250W mercury vapour lamps. See figure G1. The original Novalux luminaires had glass bowls, but these bowls have been replaced with two piece acrylic bowls of poor integrity. The Novalux poles cannot accept other luminaires as they have a non-standard luminaire mounting at the top. The poles are cast iron and cannot be welded with any reliability. Under ground these poles have an asbestos footing. The location of the Novalux poles and luminaires is shown in Appendix P. These poles and luminaires should be replaced. Some Holophane “Granville” streetlights had been installed as replacements of the “Novalux” streetlights. See figure G2. All Granville luminaires have been removed from High Street and replaced with Washington luminaires.

In Collie Street, 150W metal halide Bega 8201 indirect streetlights have been installed. These have proved successful in providing soft, glare-free, white light with a contemporary appearance. Their construction is inherently less vulnerable to vandalism as there is no exposed glass or plastic. In Henderson Stret Western Power decorative streetlights, Sylvania 70 W metal halide Bourke Hill on 6 m Avenue poles have been installed. Some car parks have been lit with three armed light poles with “well glass” luminaires with small shades. These carpark lights are glary and not very effective. The Henderson Street carpark has been partly relit with Ruud 150 W metal halide luminaires. The No. 2 car park (Clif St/Marine Tce) has been lit with Weef 150 W metal halide luminaires.
NOVALUX LUMINAIRE & POLE (replaced since photograph)
NOVALUX LUMINAIRE
Many roads in the City Centre are lit with Western Power high pressure sodium streetlights on 10.5m or 12.5m poles. These streetlights are suitable for vehicular routes but not for the city centre where tall poles are out of proportion and the yellow light inappropriate for commerce and security.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 5
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
Western Power has generally installed suburban lighting to what they term “half standard” that is they have installed half the number of streetlights required by category B2 of the superseded AS1158. Typically, 80W mercury vapour streetlights have been mounted at a height of 7.5m on each second power pole (that is every four house blocks or about 80m spacing). In fact, this does not give half the standard, but lights half of the length of the road and leaves half in the dark. Western Power embarked on a bulk Globe Replacement (BGR) program offering local government a four year replacement cycle. This cycle is being rduced to three years.
4 TREES
Trees often conflict with streetlighting. Australian Standards recommend ignoring trees for calculations for compliance but this is of course unrealistic. Conventionally, streetlights are installed on power poles on the same alignment allocated to trees, that is 2.7m from the property boundary. With underground power, streetlights have been mounted 1m from the kerb with a 1.5m outreach on a 6.5m pole. The shape, height, and density of foliage determine the amount of shadowing. Dense low foliage casts shadows on the footpath rendering lighting ineffective for personal safety. Underpruning of trees to provide a high canopy should be encouraged.
5 LIGHTING AND CRIME
Recent British research 1 has shown that public lighting improvements result in a reduction of crime. This research further indicates a diffusion of benefits rather than a displacement of crime. This means that lighting improvements reduce crime in surrounding areas rather than displacing crime from the well-lit area to areas with poor lighting. In Western Australia, research findings 2 indicate most people are afraid to go out after dark. Other research 3 in WA indicates that most people prefer to be in well-lit areas at night. Recent research 4, mainly in North America, is indicating that increasing light levels increases energy costs but does not necessarily lead to better vision. Rather, the indications are that better colour, reduced glare and good uniformity can offer better vision, in other words the quality of lighting is as important as the quantity of lighting.
6 LIGHT ON FACES
For a feeling of safety, it is important to light people’s faces. Most lighting standards, however, prescribe lighting levels on a horizontal plane. For recognition of faces at 4 meters, 0.8 lux (semi-cylindrical) was found satisfactory in research 5 conducted some years ago in the Netherlands. AS/NZ1158.3.1: 2005 recognises the need for light on faces by recommending vertical, in addition to horizontal lighting levels.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 6
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
To achieve adequate lighting on faces, luminaires should not be too far apart, light should not be obstructed and the shielding angle from reflectors or shades should allow light to reach faces.
7 WHITE LIGHT
The Corpsec Report recommends “white light” and this is repeated in the City’s report on Safety and Security. White light aids the accurate identification of colours of skin tones, clothing and vehicles by observers from the community as well as security personnel. High-pressure sodium lamps produce yellow light and have enjoyed popularity because of their apparent high efficacy. This apparent efficacy is based on the high sensitivity of the eye to yellow light under day (i.e. photopic) vision. While metal-halide lamps 6 appear to have lower efficacy than high-pressure sodium lamps, under night vision research concludes that metal-halide lamps are about twice as effective as high-pressure sodium lamps. A recent article7 by Dr A.J. Fisher recommends that at the lower lightings, say Category P4 and P5, the published light output of high pressure sodium lamps should be derated by a factor of 0.75. Further research8 indicates that red and green light with an absence of yellow light provides “visual clarity”. Red and green cells in the eye are responsible for hue contrast and luminance contrast, and for fine spatial detail. Yellow light inhibits the red and green cells. In an article in Security Management December 1994, Henri Bérubé (a constable with the Peel Regional Police Department, Brampton Ontario) recommends the use of “white light” to bring people into an area for commercial or recreational activities. He further recommends “white light” to enable witnesses to identify suspicious activities and malfeasants and to provide an accurate description of the perpetrator. According to an article in the New Yorker of June 1993 about 40th Street in New York City, where streetlighting was changed from high-pressure sodium to metal-halide, patrons would find themselves “standing straighter and breathing more slowly”. Pedestrians also reported moving more leisurely and stepping more frequently into local shops. White light may be defined as having a colour temperature above 2 700K and a colour rendering index (Ra8) of 70 or better. White light can be offered by the following lamp technologies:
• fluorescent • metal-halide • some LED technologies

8 ENVIRONMENT
While the primary environmental concern for lighting is the energy consumption, a secondary concern is the disposal of lamps that contain mercury, In many states of North America, mercury is not welcome at land fill sites. In Germany all lamps are recycled. Modern fluorescent lamps have about 1mg of mercury as opposed to 30mg in older lamps. 80 W mercury vapour lamps contain 14 mg of mercury compared to 4.5 mg in the competing 42 W compact fluorescent lamp. Low mercury lamps and responsible disposal are recommended.
9 STANDARDS
In recent years the Australian Standard for roadlighting has changed. In 2005, a new standard AS/NZS 1158.1 was published covering “Category V” lighting for vehicular routes e.g. freeways and highways. This is a revision of the 1997 document based on the previous AS 1158 – 1986. In 1999, a new standard AS/NZS 1158.3.1 was published covering “Category P” lighting for pedestrian areas. The AS/NZS 1158.3.1 Category P lighting was a fundamental change from the old AS1158-1986 Categories B & C lighting. The new standard had many more categories and takes into account: vehicular movement; risk of crime; and need to enhance prestige. It also includes requirements for vertical illumination at face level. Since then AS/NZS 1158.3.1 2005 has been published with additional requirements for lighting of traffic management devices and changes to car park lighting requirements. The current AS1158 is summarised in Appendix D.
10 UNIFORMITY
For good visibility, uniformity is as important as the amount of light. High average lighting levels with poor uniformity costs more to run and offers lower visibility than lower levels with good uniformity. For outdoor lighting, it is now the practice to nominate a minimum average level, minimum level and uniformity in terms of maximum to average. The minimum level establishes a uniformity with respect to the average level. The maximum to average uniformity is specified to avoid “hotspots” i.e. areas of excessive illuminance relative to the average.

Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
11 GLARE
Glare is caused by light in one’s eye instead of on the subject. Glare causes visual discomfort and visual disability to people and tends to disable any security cameras. Glare is of particular concern to the aged and to persons with vision disabilities. On security video systems, a bright light source can cause “white out” in the vicinity of the bright source, if not strategically placed. In an attempt to achieve some compliance with excessive streetlight spacing, manufacturers have developed streetlights that direct light at high angles close to the horizontal. The result is high glare, obtrusive light and poor visibility. Local government often receives complaints from residents of streetlights being too bright and preventing sleep. The installation of “house-side shields” results. These shields often cost more than the original streetlight, without considering the administration costs. From 5-11-2001 AS/NZ1158.3.1 no longer accepts such streetlights by limiting the intensities at 90o and 80o above the vertical. Limiting these high angle intensities, for instance by screening lamps, reduces glare.
12 LAMP TECHNOLOGY
12.1 LAMP TECHNOLOGY
Two important characteristics of lamps used for street lighting are the energy efficiency and the lamp life. The energy efficiency of lamps is measured as “efficacy”. This is the ability of the lamp to produce visible light (measured in lumens) from electrical energy (measured in Watts). Efficacy is measured in terms of lumens/Watt. A lamp with 100% energy efficiency would have an efficacy of 683 lumens/Watt. Practical lamps have efficacies in the range 10 to 200 lumens/Watt. The life of lamps may be measured as rated life or as “economic life”. Rated life is the time at which 50% lamp mortality has been reached. Economic life is the time at which the light output has depreciated to 70% of the initial light output and should be replaced. While the mercury vapour lamp has been a reliable source for minor street lighting in many parts of Australia and overseas, its status is now challenged by lamps that are more efficient. At present, the contenders for replacing mercury vapour lamps are high pressure sodium, metal halide, and fluorescent lamps. Technologies which have not been considered are: low pressure sodium lamps which have poor colour; LED’s which are not efficient and have too low power, and induction lamps that are very expensive.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 9
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
12.2 MERCURY VAPOUR LAMPS
Mercury vapour lamps were developed in the 1930’s and their efficacy has not improved since then. Metal-halide lamps that were developed in the 1960’s may be considered to have evolved from mercury vapour lamps. Mercury vapour lamps have: • A poor efficacy of between 40 and 50 lumens/Watt. • A Colour Rendering Index of about 50 with a blue-white output deficient in red that renders skin tones poorly.
• A long life of 16 000 hours typically. • A high mercury content. One advantage of the mercury vapour lamp is its long and reliable life. Mercury vapour lamps may operate for over a decade, but as each year goes by, its output diminishes. After four years of operation at 4 000 hours per year, a mercury vapour lamp will produce about 65 to 70% of its initial output, but still consume the same amount of energy. The disposal of mercury vapour lamps should be considered a serious problem. Each 80 Watt lamp contains 14 mg of mercury.
12.3 HIGH PRESSURE SODIUM LAMPS
High pressure sodium lamps have: • A high efficacy, of around 100 lumens/Watt. • Poor colour rendition with a Colour Rendering Index of 22 and a distinctive golden colour.
• A long life of 24 000 h typically. • A low mercury content. High pressure sodium lamps are a reliable light source for road lighting offering high efficacy and long life. The life of high wattage lamps is around 20 000 h while the life of low wattage lamps is around 12 000 h. A development of this lamp is the twin arc tube lamp, essentially two lamps in one envelope. This lamp offers double the life. High pressure sodium lamps are used for lighting minor roads in New Zealand and in England. One disadvantage of these lamps is their poor colour rendition that does not accurately render skin tones, clothing colours, and vehicle paintwork. The primary purpose of minor road lighting is security and high pressure sodium lighting fails to provide colour identification for security. Under photopic (day) vision, the eye is most sensitive to yellow light. Under scotopic (night) vision, the eye is most sensitive to blue light. Minor road lighting is in the mesopic (between photopic and scotopic) range of vision. What this means is that the predominantly yellow light from high pressure sodium lighting is not as effective as the white light from metal halide and fluorescent lamps. AS 1158.3.1 – 2005 now recognises this and recommends that a derating factor of 75% be applied to high pressure sodium lighting for Categories P4 and P5.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 10
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
High pressure sodium lighting is valid for highway lighting and is used by Main Roads WA and Western Power for major vehicular routes.
12.4 METAL HALIDE LAMPS
Metal-halide lamps have: • Good energy efficiencies of around 80 lumens/Watt • Excellent colour rendering giving "white light" with Colour Rendering Indices between 65 and 80. Their strong blue and green component makes them particularly well suited to night vision.
• Suffered from short life of about 6 000 hours (1½ years) but developments in recent years have extended life to 12 000 hours for low wattage lamps (3 years) and up to 20 000 hours (5 years) for larger wattage lamps.
• Low mercury content. Metal halide lamps have been used in the Fremantle east State Underground Power Projest. Metal halide stret lights have also been installed in Perth, Gosnells, Midvale, Mosman Park and Armadale. Mercury vapour lamps were developed in the 1930’s and their efficacy has not improved since then. Metal-halide lamps that were developed in the 1960’s may be considered to have evolved from mercury vapour lamps.
12.5 FLUORESCENT LAMPS
Fluorescent lamps: • Offer high efficacy of between 80 and 100 lumens/watt. • Offer "white light" with a Colour Rendering Index of 80 giving excellent colour rendering of red, blue and green.
• Have a life varying from 12,000 hours to 36,000 hours. • Have low mercury content. T5 (16mm diameter) fluorescent lamps are linear fluorescent lamps but with a smaller diameter to the conventional 26 mm lamps. These lamps run on electronic control gear and have very high efficacy (about 100 lumens/watt) and a long life of about 20,000 hours. A trial of these lamps is being established in Victoria. One Australian manufacturer, Pierlite has produced a streetlight using two x 14 W and 2 x 24 W, T5 (16 mm diameter) lamps with electronic control gear. These lamps have a rated life of 20,000 hours. The 14 W lamps have an efficacy of 100 lumens/watt and the 24 W lamps 80 lumens/watt. A street lighting trial of T5 lamps is being established in Victoria. Streetlights with compact fluorescent lamps are available from a number of manufacturers. These lamps have an efficacy of 80 lumens/watt and a life of 12,000 hours.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 11
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
Sylvania have an “amalgam” type fluorescent lamp with a claimed life of 28 000 hours. The City of Subiaco has installed hundreds of 42 Watt compact fluorescent street lights. Old technology fluorescent lamps have been used in Australia, particularly around the Sydney metropolitan area. Twin 18 Watt linear fluorescent lamps with wire wound ballasts have been typical. These are T8 (26 mm diameter) lamps with a rated life of about 10 000 hours.
12.6 LOW PRESSURE SODIUM LAMPS
Low pressure sodium lamps have been used rarely in the past in Australia for street lighting but are being replaced because of their poor colour characteristics. These lamps have no Colour Rendering Index. These lamps have a monochromatic yellow colour that does not support colour vision, however they do have an extremely high efficiency of 200 lumens/Watt. Low pressure sodium lamps have been used in very few countries with limited success. These lamps have a limited future and are only of historical interest.
12.7 LIGHT EMITTING DIODES
Light emitting diodes (LED’s) are a promising light source but the efficacy of white LED’s has been poor and the power is limited. LED’s offer long life of the order of 50 000 hours. In 2006, the efficacy of white LED’s was about 25 lm/W and in 2007 this rose to about 75 lm/W. Further improvements are expected during the course of 2008. At present the cost of LED street lights is several times higher than that of other street lights. LED’s are a promising light source, and within the next few years efficient and practical LED street lights should become available at reasonable cost. LED’s are useful for minor road lighting and have been trialled in Right of Way 26. LED’s are not yet suitable for major road lighting. Examples of LED street lights can be seen on Fraser Avenue in Kings Park.
12.8 INDUCTION LAMPS
The induction lamp is a type of fluorescent lamp that offers extremely long life. The cost is very high and makes these lamps appropriate only when maintenance access is extremely difficult. Induction lamps are not suitable for large scale street lighting as their cost, about $1000, is prohibitive.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 12
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
12.9 LAMP COMPARISON
The various lamp families are compared in Appendix N “LAMP OPTIONS”.
13 SOLAR POWERED LIGHTING
Solar powered lighting is available but is expensive in terms of capital and running costs. Solar powered lighting requires a solar panel, battery charger, battery and inverter. The batteries, either lead-acid or nickel-cadmium, are expensive and need to be replaced every few years. Solar powered lighting is economic if the source of power is remote, say several hundred metres. The cost of cabling to a conventional light may then exceed the additional cost of the solar powered light.
14 ECONOMY
The cost of lighting comprises energy costs, lamp replacement costs and the capital cost. Generally, energy costs predominate over the other costs. The cost of energy can be reduced by avoiding excessive lighting levels, and by the use of effective lamps, optical systems, and electrical switching or control systems.
15 LIGHTING CONTROL
Historically in Western Australia streetlighting has been switched on at dusk and switched off at midnight or 1.15 a.m. In most areas “all night” lighting is now the norm. This control regime can be easily arranged with a photoelectric switch on each streetlight.
16 OBTRUSIVE LIGHT
Obtrusive light is spill light that causes annoyance, distraction, discomfort or reduction in vision. Obtrusive light from streetlights is covered by AS1158, and from other lighting installations (e.g. sport, industry, advertising) by AS4282. Of particular concern to the City should be the avoidance of obtrusive light to navigation in the river and harbours. Navigation is particularly dependent on visual signals and any lighting installation must avoid light out to sea, the river and the harbours.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 13
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
17 LOCAL GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES
During 2000, the Western Australian Municipal Association took an interest in street lighting and formed a local government committee. The principal interest was to reduce energy usage and cost. A preliminary paper entitled “Streetlighting in Western Australia” was prepared. Subsequently a report entitled “Improved Street Lighting Study for Greenhouse and Safety benefits – Institutional and Technical Review” was prepared in June 2007 for the WA Local Government Association and the Sustainable Energy Development Office. The Cities for Climate Protection program has concise advice on street lighting, advocating energy efficient metal-halide and compact fluorescent lamps.
18 MAINTENANCE
The lighting installation should be maintained so that: Light Technical Parameters do not fall below 70% of the initial values Luminaire failures should be repaired within 5 days. No less than 95% of luminaires shall be operational at any time. The number of consumable items such as lamps and control gear should be rationalized to minimise the stock of spare parts. Luminaires and associated hardware should be vandal-resistant and corrosion-resistant. Luminaires shall have an ingress protection of IP55, that is, dust-proof and hose-proof.
19 OVERHEAD LINES
There are Western Power high voltage transmission lines running through the City. Streetlights need to be located away from overhead lines to allow safe access for maintenance. Street lights should be located at the following minimum distances from power lines: Voltage Clearance 415 Volt 1 metre 11 and 22 kilo Volt 3 metre 33 kilo Volt and above 6 metre If a street light is closer than these distances, advice from Western Power must be sought.

20 RECOMMENDATIONS AND ACHIEVEMENTS
20.1 CITY CENTRE
High Street
Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
The High Street is the spine of the City Centre. Referring to AS1158.3.1, we recommend that High Street be lit to Category P2 (3.5 lux average, 0.7 lux minimum, 10:1 maximum to minimum, and 0.7 lux vertical) with white light. This can be achieved with “Washington” luminaires with 250 W metal-halide lamps on 4.2 m “Novalux” poles (See figure G3).
100% Lit with Washington luminaires with 150 W metal halide lamps on 4.2 m Novalux replica poles.
For the High Street Mall and associated areas a lighting plan has been prepared. This plan recommends lighting to Category P2 and includes:
• Public lighting installed under verandahs
• Lighting to the building features above the verandas • Mall lighting Washington luminaires
instaaled • Lighting to the mosaic
• In ground uplights to trees In ground uplights to two trees
In 1999 new lighting was installed comprising high pressure sodium lamps in Holophane “Granville” luminaires on Novalux poles. The light poles can be retained and the Granville luminaires replaced with Washington luminaires with white light. The Granville luminaires can then be redeployed on lesser streets.
Granville luminaires have been replaced withWashington luminaires.
Round House Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
To provide a spectacular focal point to the High Street vista, we recommend strong floodlighting of the east face of the Round House and floodlighting of the cliff face below the Round House. The Round House is constructed of light coloured limestone and thus lends itself to floodlighting.
100% Lit with We-ef in ground uplights with Philips Cosmo white 90 W lamps.

Market Street & South Terrace Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
Market Street and South Terrace are considered to be of equal importance to High Street. We recommend that it be lit to Category P2 with white light using the Washington luminaires on 4.2m Novalux poles. 150W metal-halide Sylvania Parkville luminaires on the single and double-outreach 8m Cantonment Street poles used in Cantonment Street may be considered as an economical alternative. (See figure G5).

Cantonment Street
Pioneer Park Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
Pioneer Park is actively used at night and good lighting is needed to deter illegitimate activities. We recommend that this space be lit to Category P7 of AS1158.3.1 (14 lux average, 4 lux minimum, 10:1 maximum to minimum, and 2 lux vertical). A single 150W metal-halide Bega 8201 luminaire on a 5m pole was installed in Pioneer Park as a prototype. It has proved to be effective and resistant to vandalism as there is no exposed lamp, glass or plastic. Accordingly, we recommend that Pioneer Park to lit with Bega 8201 luminaires.

King’s Square Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
King’s Square is an active public space during the day but appears dark and sinister at night.. It is recommended that this space be lit to Category P6 of AS1158.3.1 (21 lux average, 7 lux minimum, 10:1 maximum to minimum, and 7 lux vertical). Because of the historic nature of the square, “Washington” luminaires are recommended with 150 W metal-halide lamps on the 4.2 m Novalux poles. See figure G3.
Partly complete with Washington luminaires with 150 W metal halide lamps on 4.2 m Novalux replica poles.
Queen’s Square Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
A plan for the redevelopment of Queens Square has been developed. The aim is to develop the early concept for the square, to encourage commerce and recreation and to discourage anti-social behaviour especially at night. Businesses are being encouraged to open onto the square. A pedestrian route is planned to surround the square. Lighting of this route should be to Category P3 of AS1158 (1.75lux average, 0.3 lux minimum, 10:1 maximum to average, and 0.3 lux vertical) with white light. This can be provided by a combination of building mounted luminaires and pole mounted luminaires coordinated with the tree planting.
75% complete with Bega 8200 luminaires with 70 W metal halide lamps.
Cantonment Street Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
A plan has been prepared to the redevelopment of Cantonment Street in response to proposals for a new residential development and a new hotel. Lighting should be to Category P3 (1.7 lux average, 0.3 lux minimum, 10:1 maximum/average and 0.3 lux vertical) with white light. This can be achieved with median mounted streetlights through the commercial precinct and with verge mounted streetlights through the residential precinct. Suggested luminaires are 150W metal-halide Sylvania Parkville luminaires on single and double-outreach 8m poles (See figure G5). Extensive tree planting is planned and the height of the poles may need to be adjusted to allow light to pass under the tree canopies. Consideration should be given to uplighting of the trees.
100% with Sylvania Parkville luminaires with 150 W metal halide lamps on custom 8 m poles.

Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
Night Priority Routes Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
In addition to High Street and Market Street, the City has identified the following streets as “Night Priority Routes”:
• Collie Street 0
• Essex Street 100%
• Adelaide Street 0
• Queen Street 0
• Marine Terrace (Cliff St. - Essex St) 0
• South Terrace (Market – Norfolk) 0
• Cliff Street (Phillimore – Marine Terrace) 100%
• Parry Street (South Terrace – Holdsworth) 0
We recommend that these streets be lit to Category P3 (1.75 lux average, 0.3 lux minimum, 10:1 maximum to average and 0.3 lux vertical) with white light. This can be achieved with the Bourke Hill luminaires with 70 W metal halide lamps on 6 m Avenue poles. As an alternative, where a contemporary look is preferred, Bega 8201 indirect luminaire with 150 W metal-halide lamps on 5m straight, circular section, poles can be used.
Where more economical hardware is appropriate, the Sylvania Parkville luminaires with 150W metal-halide lamps on poles of about 8 m height, or the Sylvania Bourke Hill luminaire with 70 W metal halide lamps on poles of about 6 m height are suggested. The Esplanade Reserve Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
This reserve is used at night as a route from Cliff, Collie and Essex streets to the Boat Harbour entertainment precinct. Hazards are the toilets, the playground and the amphitheatre. We recommend that a serpentine route be lit across the reserve from the rail crossing to Essex Street. Lighting to Category P3 is recommended. This can be achieved with the 150 W metal-halide Bega 8201 luminaires on 5m straight, circular section, poles. In addition, floodlighting of the toilet block and the playground is strongly advised. Removal of the amphitheatre should be considered.
100% The Esplanade has had Bega 8201 luminires installed on 5 m poles along the Mrine Terrace. Elsewhere floodlights on tall poles have been installed.

Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
West End Streets Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
This precinct has many historical commercial buildings with stucco finish. To suit the ambience of the precinct, warm colour lighting is preferred. Suitable lamps are the high pressure sodium, warm deluxe metal-halide, and warm compact fluorescent lamps.
2009 Recommendation
The City prefers warm light for the West End. Western Power provides warm colour (3000 K) metal halide lamps. High pressure sodium while providing warm colour, is not suitable for use with security cameras, and is not favoured by security personnel. We recommend that these streets be lit to Category P4 and P3 of AS1158.3.1. This can be achieved with Western Power “Bourke Hill” luminaires with 70 W metal halide lamps on 6.5 m “Avenue” poles.
Entries to the City Centre Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
The main entries to the City Centre are Beach Road, Queen Victoria Street, High Street, South Terrace, and Marine Terrace. Streetscaping of these entries is expected.
Recommendation Achievement
Beach Road and Queen Victoria Street should be lit to Category V5 of AS1158.1.1.
Lit to V5 under the SUPP.
High Street should be lit to Category P2 of AS1158.3.1 up to Stirling Street then be lit to Category V5 to Wood Street.
South Terrace should be lit to Category P3 of AS1158.3.1 to just past Howard Street. Further South, lighting should be to Category V5 of AS1158.1.1. Marine Terrace should be lit to Category P3 of AS1158.3.1 to halfway between Arundel Street and Howard Street. Further South, lighting should be to Category V5 of AS1158.1.1.
Car Parks Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
There are a number of existing outdoor car parks. For the large area car parks, Category P11a is recommended. This category requires a high lighting level of 14 lux on average. Glare must be avoided to adjoining roadways.
Maritime Museum car park has been lit. The Henderson Car Park has been partly lit.
This can be achieved with 150W metal-halide “forward throw” flat glass luminaires on 6m poles spaced about 17 apart lengthwise and about 15 m apart crosswise. The prefered luminaire is the Ruud Wedge. See figure H5. It is possible to provide bi-level switching to car parks. This means that after hours, except for Friday night and Satyrday night, lighting levels and energy can be reduced to about half. Lighting can still comply with AS/NZS 1158, dropping from Category 11a to Category 11b.
Henderson Car Park

Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
Floodlighting of Buildings Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
In addition to the Round House, it has been suggested that the following buildings should be floodlit:
• Town Hall 0
• Signal Station 0
• Railway Station 0
• Prison 0
• Davis Building (cnr Collie & South Tce) 0
• Maritime Museum 0
• Water Police, Barracks 0
• Victoria Pavilion 0
• Markets 0
• TAFE 0
20.2 CITY SURROUNDS
Primary Distributors
Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
The Perth Metropolitan Area Functional Road Hierarchy identifies the following routes as Primary Distributors:
• Stirling Highway 0
• Queen Victoria Street (Tydeman Road to Canning Highway) including the Traffic Bridge
0
• Tydeman Road 0
• High Street (East of Wood Street) 0
• Stock Road 0
• South Street (East of Hampton Road) 0
These routes should be lit to Category V5 of AS1158.1.1. This can be achieved with 150W high pressure sodium streetlights on 12.5m poles at a spacing of about 60 m.
District Distributors
Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
The following roads are identified as District Distributors on the Functional Road Hierarchy:
• Port Beach Road
• Beach Street Lit to V5 under SUPP
• Queen Victoria Street Lit to V5 under SUPP
• Ord Street/Hampton Road
• Marine Terrace/The Esplanade (South of Norfolk Street)
• South Terrace (Norfolk Street to Douro Road) New metal halide streetlights were planned to be installed in 2007
• Douro Road
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 20
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
• South Street (West of Hampton Road)
• High Street (West of Wood Street)
• East Street (Canning Highway to High Street)
• Marmion Street
• Carrington Street
These routes should be lit to Category V5 of AS1158.1.1. This can be achieved with 150W high pressure sodium streetlights on 12.5m poles at a spacing of about 60 m.
Port Beach Road has heavy traffic volumes including many heavy vehicles, both day and night. At present it has no lighting North of Tydeman Road. Lighting of Port Beach Road should be given priority for traffic safety.
Hampton Road carries very heavy traffic volumes, over 20 000 vehicles per day. This indicates that it should be lit to Category V3.
Shared Roads Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
The following roads are a shared responsibility between Main Roads WA and the City:
• Port Beach Road Partly lit
• Tydeman Road 0
• Stirling Highway (South of Leach Highway) 0
• Canning Highway (East of Stirling Highway 0
• Leach Highway 0
• Cockburn Road 0
• the Traffic Bridge 0
South Street East of Curedale Street and Stock Road are the sole responsibility of MRWA.
The future of Port Beach Road depends on a report on the West Suburbs Highway. The recommended lighting category of V5 may then need to be revised.
Local Distributor Roads Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
These roads are identified on the attached Figure A2 and should be lit to Category P3 of AS1158. With underground power, this can be achieved with 70 Watt metal halide luminaires on 6.5 m poles at 60 m spacing to cover a 20 m road reserve. With overhead power, this can be achieved with 70 Watt metal halide luminaires mounted at 7.5 m on power poles at 40 m spacing to cover a 20 m road reserve.

Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
Access Roads Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
These roads are identified on the attached Figure A2 and should be lit to AS/NZS 1158.3.1 Category P4. With underground power, this can be achieved with 42 W compact fluorescent luminaires on 6.5 m poles at 60 m spacing to cover a 20 m road reserve. Access Roads with existing overhead power can be lit to AS/NZS 1158.3.1 Category P5. This can be achieved with 42 W compact fluorescent luminaires mounted at 7.5 m on power poles at 80 m spacing to cover a 20 m road reserve.
Under the Fremantle East undeground power project 410 street lights were replaced
Convenience Stores and Local Centres Recommendation in 2001 Strategy Achievement
At these commercial centres, the lighting category should be raised for security and commercial reasons. At the convenience stores the lighting of the minor roads (category P4) should be raised to P3. At the commercial centres, on collector roads, the lighting should be raised to P2. Where the commercial centre is on a main vehicular route, the lighting (category V3 or V5) should be maintained but “white” rather than yellow high pressure sodium lighting should be used. The height of the light poles should be reduced to emphasize the change in the nature of the road.

21 OBSERVATIONS OF LIGHTING
Appendix O submits observations of lighting that has been improved over the last few years since the Lighting Strategy was prepared in 2001. The observations were undertaken on 8-9-209 in the following areas: High Street Market Street Henderson Street Cantonment Street Maritime Museum Car Park Measurements of horizontal and vertical illuminance were taken in four locations on each site. High Street is lit with 150W metal halide “Washington” luminaires. The aim was to light to Catergory P2. Measurements indicated the lighting approaches Category P1. Henderson Street is lit with 70W metal halide “Bourke Hill” luminaires. The aim was to light to Catergory P4. Measurements indicate the lighting approaches Catergory P2. Maritime Museum Carpark is lit with what appears to be 150W metal halide floodlights. The aim was to light to Category P11. Measurements indicate the lighting meets Catergory P11.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 22
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
Market Street is lit with 250W high pressure sodium “Roadster” luminaires. The aim was to light to Category P2. Measurements indicate the lighting exceeds Categories P1 & P8 and approaches Category P7. Cantonment Street is lit with 150W metal halide “Parkerville” luminaires. The aim was to light to Category P3. Measurements indicate the lighting exceeds Category P3 and approaches Category P1. While there were differences between planned lighting levels and those achieved, the differences were all positive and acceptable. Practicalities, such as available pole locations, often determine that more poles and luminaires are needed than planned.
22 PRIORITIES
City Centre Based on concerns for safety and security we recommend that the first priority includes Kings Square, and Market Street and South Terrace from the railway station to Norfolk Street. High Street West has already been relit. This will provide a safe night route to the railway station from Notre Dame University and from the entertainment district. As a second priority, we recommend High Street East. As a third priority, we recommend the remaining “Night Priority Routes”. The remaining streets would follow as a fourth priority. City Surrounds The streetlighting of the city surrounds can most economically proceed in conjunction with underground power programs.
23 WESTERN POWER LIGHTING EQUIPMENT
Traditionally Western Power has been the streetlighting service provider to local government except for controlled access highways where Main Roads WA lighting is used. In the past Western Power have demonstrated reluctance to install and maintain streetlighting other than their standard range of hardware.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Page 23
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Strategy 06.DOC
Western Power has the following lamps available:
• 80 W mercury • 42 W compact fluorescent (during 2010) • 125 W mercury • 70 W metal halide • 150 W high pressure sodium • 150W metal halide • 250 W high pressure sodium • 250W metal halide • 50 W mercury (superseded) • 70 W high pressure sodium (superseded)
Western Power has the following poles available:
• 6.5m single 1.5m outreach • 10.5m single & double 3m outreach • 12.5m single & double 3m outreach
These poles may have a galvanised finish or may be painted. Western Power also has a range of decorative streetlights and poles.
24 CONTRACT
We suggest that tenders be invited from potential streetlighting service providers for the installation and maintenance of the streetlighting improvements. There are electrical contractors with the skills and experience and Western Power may be interested to tender as well. Tenders should be invited on the basis of conditions of contract (e.g.AS2124), technical specification, drawings, and bills of quantity.
25 COST ESTIMATES
Cost estimates are outlined in Appendix C. The estimates of running costs are based on current Synergy tarriffs (dusk to dawn) for Western Power lighting and for private lighting on Synergy 218 tarriff (unmetered supply). The basis for the estimates of capital costs are shown in footnotes in Appendix C.

Notes: Many people require better artificial lighting than is normally provided. This applies particularly to older people and to people with impaired vision. For people with impaired hearing, a level of illumination of not less than 150 lux, without glare, is needed to allow for lip reading. Light switches should be located within the 700 to 1200 mm “zone of common reach”. 1000 mm is a good height for light switches. In bedrooms, a bedside switch shall control an overhead light giving at least 150 lux. In circulation areas, two way switching should be provided. In circulation areas & bathrooms, night lighting should be provided.

SIGNS FOR BUILDINGS
DURATION 90 minute minimum duration and 120 minutes at commissioning. If HID, time delay to allow re-strike, or proportion of normal luminaires with instant re-strike. Testing facilities to test discharge – manual or automatic. LIGHTING DESIGN A single luminaire can serve an area if it is less than 500 sq m. Spacing to AS 2293 classification and manufacturer’s tables, or by calculation so that the minimum illuminance level is 0.2 lux. Within 2 m of intersection and change of level, on low side. EXIT SIGNS The running man pictogram instead of “EXIT” is required from 1 May 2006 by the BCA 2006.
AS 2293-2005 specifies a minimum pictorial element height of 100mm. No maximum height is specified. Maximum viewing distances are tabled below:
ELEMENT HEIGHT (mm) MAXIMUM VIEWING DISTANCE (m)
100 16
150 24
200 32
250 40
The maximum viewing distance is marked on the face of the diffuser. WIRING FIRE ISOLATED PASSAGEWAYS, RAMPS, STAIRS Separate final sub-circuit from circuits for other emergency lighting. Also alternate emergency luminaires shall be on separate final sub-circuits and alternate exit signs shall be on separate final sub-circuits. LARGE UNDIVIDED AREAS For areas over 500 sq m, emergency luminaires shall be supplied from more than one separate final sub-circuit so that if one circuit fails a comprehensive and evenly spaced pattern of luminaires remains on the other circuits.

A GLOSSARY OF LIGHTING TERMINOLOGY
Average Carriageway Luminance (L) - The average luminance of a given section of the road carriageway when viewed from the observer’s position.
Average Illuminance (E) - The average lighting levels at ground level measured in the horizontal plane.
For the Category P4 & P5 streets, the results measured and recorded in this column are the average over the whole street.
Average Lamp Life - Time taken until 50% of lamps has reached end of life.
Colour Temperature - An indication of the colour appearance of a lamp measured in degrees Kelvin (K).
2700K indicates a warm colour, 5000K indicates a cool colour.
Depreciation - The loss of light output over time as lamps age and optical surfaces collect dirt.
Disability Glare - Glare resulting in reduced visual performance, often accompanied by discomfort.
Efficacy - A measure of lamp output efficiency, with units of lumen/watt
Flat Glass Luminaires - Luminaires with no light emitting above the horizontal giving low glare & low
obtrusive light.
Fluorescent Lamps - Lamps that can give “white light”. Compact fluorescent lamps present the ordinary tubular lamp in a small package.
Flange Mounted Pole - A pole manufactured with a flange at the bottom to bolt down to a concrete footing.
Footing – A concrete base for a flanged pole.
Glare – A condition of vision in which there is discomfort or reduction of ability to see, or both, caused by an
unsuitable distribution or range of luminance, or to extreme contrasts in the field of vision.
Glare Control Mark - A measure of discomfort glare produced by a street light in a particular situation. This mark is on a scale of 1 to 9 with higher numbers being more comfortable.
High Pressure Sodium (HPS) Lamps - Lamps with a yellow colour appearance. Used on freeways.
Illuminance - The amount of lighting at a particular point, measured in lux.
Ingress Protection - or “IP rating”, a two digit code that indicates resistance to ingress of solids and liquids, the first digit refers to solids, the second to liquids eg IP55 means dust-protected & water-jet proof. Higher
numbers indicate better sealing.
Illuminance Uniformity (Ue) - This is a measure that relates average illuminance to maximum illuminance. The higher the figure, the greater the problems of excessive contrast of the highest illumination point.
Lamp - a generic term for a man made source of light sometimes colloquially referred to as a “globe” or
“bulb”.
Light Output - The total luminous flux emitted by a lamp or luminaire.
Luminance - the brightness of an object or surface. Measured in units of cd/m2 (candela per square metre).
Low Pressure Sodium (LPS) Lamps - Lamps with a distinctive yellow colour. The light emitted by this
lamp distorts the colours of blue, green and red, but produced a high quantity of light for the quantity of energy consumed.
Longitudinal Luminance Uniformity (UI) - The ratio of minimum to maximum carriageway luminance in a
longitudinal line along the road through the observer’s position. The closer this figure is to 1, the more even is the luminance.
Fremantle Lighting Strategy Report Page 58
Sage Consulting Engineers Pty Ltd 2010 S:\1806 Fremantle LSR Update\JANUARY 2010\1806 Appendix F Glossary.doc
A GLOSSARY OF LIGHTING TERMINOLOGY
Luminaire - A light fitting or “fixture” including lamps, optical system and any electrical control gear.
Minimum Illuminance (Emin) - The minimum measured lighting level recorded in the measurement area, the measurements taken at ground level in the horizontal plane
Mercury Vapour (MV) Lamps - Lamps with a blue-white colour.
Metal Halide Lamps - Lamps which can give “white light”- more efficient than mercury vapour.
Mounting Height - The vertical distance between the centre of a luminaire and the surface of the carriageway
immediately beneath the lighting.
Nominal Height - The vertical distance between the bottom of the base plate or ground line (as applicable) and -
(a) For columns with outreach arms - a horizontal line at the highest level of the outreach arm centre-line. (b) For post-top columns – the highest point of the column excluding any fixing spigot.
Observer’s Position - A reference position on the road from which theoretical calculations are based.
Approximately where a driver would sit when driving down the road.
Obtrusive Light - Spill light causing annoyance distraction, discomfort or reduction in vision.
Outreach - The distance measured horizontally from the centre of a bracket-mounted luminaire, to the centre of
the column or pole, or the wall face to which the bracket is attached.
Overall Luminance Uniformity (Uo) - The ratio of minimum carriageway luminance to the average luminance. The closer this figure is to 1, the more even the luminance.

Spill Light - Light which falls outside the boundary of the property on which the lighting installation is sited
Surround Illuminance Ratio (ES) - The ratio between the average illuminance of the road verge to the adjacent section of carriageway. The higher the ratio, the more effectively will verge details be discernible to
drivers.
Threshold Increment - A measure of disability glare produced by a street lighting in a particular situation. The higher numbers correspond to greater disability glare.
Uniformity Ratio - The ratio of maximum illuminance to average illuminance.
Upcast Angle - The angle between the axis of the luminaire fixing and the horizontal.
Uplift - (For pole-mounted bracket arms) - the vertical distance between the intersection of the bracket arm centre-line with the supporting face and the highest level of the bracket arm centre-line.

5.1.3
Lighting
A number of readings were taken with a light meter (TOPCON IM-2D) in both the CBD and
residential areas during the survey. A horizontal reading was taken to measure the amount
of light actually reaching the ground. A vertical reading was also taken to identify the
amount of light illuminating vehicles, individual’s faces and signage, etc. This reading is
sometimes higher due to reflection of light off other surfaces such as walls, windows and
other vertical features.
A lumen is a the unit of luminous flux (light) used in describing the quality of light emitted by
a source and Lux is the lumen of light spread over one square meter. All readings were
measured in Lux.
To provide reference levels the following examples of typical light levels are,
Clear Moonlight
- 0.2 Lux,
Main Road Street lighting
-
15 Lux,
Office lighting
- 400 – 600 Lux,
Direct sunlight
- 50,000 – 100,000 Lux
In numerous residential streets and parks in the City, there were readings of zero (0) lux.
This illustrates that street lighting and lighting of parks in the Town is generally inadequate.
Though some street lighting did meet the current Australian Standard, it is recognised by
most, if not all lighting consultants and specialists, that the Standard itself is inadequate and
fortunately is currently being rewritten. During the night-time physical survey, some
streetlights were seen not to be working and the illumination cast by numerous others was
obscured by tree branches and other foliage.
During the course of the survey CorpSec staff became aware of an agreement between Local
Government and the then electric power utility, to only provide street lighting to half the
Australian Standard.
In City of Fremantle, as with most other municipalities, street lighting is not directed towards
pedestrian movement (on footpaths and walkways) but onto the adjoining road. This casts
pools of illumination onto the roads but generally leaves footpaths unlit.
Often overhanging branches and foliage block out illumination, further decreasing the level
of light that reaches footpaths. In most cases, this situation is only remedied through
lighting from adjoining homes/businesses, placing footpaths very close to roads, or the
removal or selective thinning of trees and other vegetation between street lighting and
walkways. Street lighting should, wherever porrible, be directed towards pedestrian
movement.
Surveys conducted in the United Kingdom show a direct positive co-relation between the
amount of lighting and the amount of crime.

Recommendation N
o. 3
a)
Establish an integrated Lighting plan for the City coordinating street lighting for both
the CBD and residential suburbs, for the purpose of enhancing security and safety in
accordance with the draft Australian Standard on street lighting (DR 98380).
(Cost: To be investigated by the City)
b)
Institute a proactive program of removing or pruning vegetation that obscures street
lighting.
(Cost: to be absorbed)
c)
Establish a program to place or re-direct streetlights to cast as much illumination on
pedestrian walkways as practicable.
(Cost: to be absorbed)
d)
Upgrade, as they need replacing, streetlights to meet or exceed the draft Australian
Standard on Street-lighting. It is suggested that white light, preferably in the form of
Metal Halide lights, be used as these are an excellent form of lighting for security and
safety purposes (particularly if CCTV is to be used).
5.2.4
Lighting (CBD)
A number of indicative light meter readings were taken in carious areas throughout the CBD.
Lighting in the CBD as a whole was seen to be closer to the required standard than that seen
in the outer suburbs. Most areas of the CBD where pedestrian movement is common are
adequately lit by a number of different types of luminaires, however the effectiveness of
some lights are diminished by their ineffective placement in relation to eaves overhanging
some walkways (Refer to photograph 17 ANNEX B). Lighting in outlying areas of the CBD
are of a low standard.
It is important to note that the establishment of standards of lighting in the CBD may be
exacerbated by the fact that there is a certain amount of residential property within the area.
Australian lighting standards AS1158 (1986) specify much higher levels for Town and city
centres than that needed for residential properties.
Recommendation N
o. 9
Institute a Lighting plan as mentioned in Recommendation 3a.
5.2.9
Specific Areas Identified
A number of specific areas within the CBD were identified as being of concern. They are
addressed individually below.

Carp
ark
(Corn
er of Canto
nment and Q
ueen Street)
This carpark is a gathering point for groups and individuals in their vehicles particularly at
night. Some were observed to be street drinking and displaying other antisocial behavoir on
a reasonably regular basis during the survey, particularly on weekends.
Recommendation N
o. 13
Ensure that particular attention is paid to vastly increasing the lighting of this area according
to recommendation 3a (Lighting Plan), to increase visibility, to hopefully move the anti-social
group away and to enhance the effectiveness of recommended camera surveillance of this
street as mentioned in recommendation 9a.
(Cost: included in recommendations 3a and 9a).
Kings Square
A number of light meter readings were taken in Kings Square and the High Street Mall.
These aras appear well lit by a number of sodium vapour lamps.
A number of telephones are located at one end of the Mall area. As a result of physical
surveys, it is considered that this central point has become a focus for individuals who
badger people on the telephones for money.
Recommendation N
o. 14
a Redistribute the telephone booths to reduce the incidents of solicitation for monty.
(Cost: To be investigated by the City).
b Significantly increase the amount of lighting as per recommendation 3a (City lighting
plan) in order to reduce the opportunity for loitering and itinerants sleeping in this area.
(Cost: included in recommendation 3a).
Queens Square
Queens Square is a common area used by itinerants and other groups for drinking and
sleeping. The light meter readings for the area were taken whilst sitting on the park bench
at the corner of High and Parry Street. These readings were considered extremely low.
It is considered that the low level of lighting attracts individuals who wish to be ignored
whilst engaging in drinking or sleeping.

Recommendation N
o. 15
a Increase lighting as per recommendation No. 3a in this park area.
(Cost: included in recommendation 3a).
b Trim foliage to enhance natural surveillance of the rear of the park.
(Cost: No direct cost).
High Street Mall
There are a number of anti-social and other issues that emanate from the High Street Mall
area. The most significant being that of drugs distribution. This problem is well known to
the Fremantle Police who, with outside support, have mounted numerous operations
targeting this area, with little success to date. Distributors are known to the police however
prosecution is a difficult undertaking for a variety of legal reasons.
While it is understood that the mall is to be redesigned, it is submitted that it must be
redesigned with CPTED principals well to the forefront, in order to reduce criminal and anti-
social activity.
Lighting in the area is adequate for safety but may need to be replaced should CCTV
cameras be used, as the present sodium vapour lighting is considered ill suited for correct
identification and clarity.
Recommendation N
o. 16
a Redesign the mall area in accordance with CPTED and CPTEM principles.
(Cost: to be investigated by the City).
b Install CCTV cameras as mentioned in recommendation 9a.
Fre
mantle H
ospital
Lighting and carpark security pertaining to Fremantle Hospital are considered unsatisfactory,
particularly in those areas behind the Hospital and areas adjacent to Fremantle prison.
Lighting and security no only represents a safety concern for nurses and other staff of the
hospital, but also for those pedestrians using this access way down the side of the Prison to
enter and exit the CBD.
Recommendion N
o. 17
Council request Fremantle Hospital to address inadequate carpark security and lighting
around the perimeter of their facility.
(Cost: No direct cost).

5.3
Suburb
s
As an example of typical levels of light in the City’s suburbs, it is recommended that town
planners conduct a quick night-time visit to Pearse Street in North Fremantle and drive the
length of the street, well after dark. Particular attention should be paid to lighting levels
upon alighting from the car and extinguishing the headlights.
5.3.2
Park
s and O
vals
Parks and ovals in the suburbs of the City display a lack of CPTED and CPTEM principles.
Most that were observed displayed inadequate lighting during night surveys. Anecdotal
evidence suggests that parks and playgrounds are often used as hang-outs for illegitimate
users of space particularly at night. It was suggested by some who were interviewed that
night-time burglaries are often committed on houses opposite parks. It is thought that
groups or individuals use the darkness to wait and watch for residents leaving, commit the
burglary and escape through the park.
As an example of inadequate planning, the new playground on the corner of Paget and
Rennie Streets in Hilton has no illumination at night. This is a similar situation to Hilton Park
where a large portion of the playground and surrounding areas are unlit and afford an
excellent hiding place for illegitimate users and those wishing to loiter. The same park has
public toilets that are unlocked at night and which were observed being used as a meeting
place for a number of suspicious activities. A park bench is located in front of the women’s
toilet entrance (refer to photograph 5 in ANNEX B).
Recommendation N
o. 20
Increase lighting for parks and ovals as part of recommendation 3a (City lighting plan).
(Cost: included in recommendation 3a).

Lighting Strategy
The Security Risk Management Study has identified that lighting in the City of Fremantle is a
significant problem. Council should undertake a detailed lighting study to identify strategies
for improvement and upgrade over a specified time frame and provide funding for its
implementation.
Council needs to institute a proactive program of removing or pruning vegetation that
obscured street lighting. It also needs to survey all streetlights to replace damaged lights
and redirect lighting to pedestrian areas as practicable.
Street lights should be upgraded, as they need replacing, to meet or exceed the draft
Australian Standard with a white light preferably “Metal Halide” lights as these are an
excellent form of lighting for security and safety purposes, particularly if CCTV is used.

� AS/NZS 1158.3.1 Category, X = non-compliant with any Category. The non-compliance
refers to the geometry (80 m spacing, 7.5 m mounting height) rather than the technology.
In each case compliance could be achieved with better geometry (closer spacing or higher
mounting height).
� Mercury content in each lamp measured in milligrams.
� Lamp life in hours (typical burning hours for all night streetlights are 4,000 per annum)
Based on Western Power tariff Z18 ($1.1676/kW per day).
� Twin arc tube versions of the 70 and 50 W high pressure sodium lamps are available.
These lamps have twice the life of standard lamps, that is 40 000 hours instead of 20 000
hours. These lamps offer better economy through their long life, but give yellow light that is
subject to a de-rating of 75%.
The data in Table 2 is derived from lamp manufacturers represented in Australia 3.
Where non-compliance is shown against “Category”, the non-compliance is due to the
minimum illuminance level of AS/NZS 1158.3.1 not being achieved. With this standard
geometry 80 W mercury vapour, 42 W compact fluorescent, and 50 W high pressure sodium
lamps are non-compliant, but would be compliant at spacings shorter than 80 m.
While mercury vapour lamps have proved reliable for street lighting over 70 years, it is
suggested that the future lies with a combination of fluorescent, metal halide, and high
pressure sodium lamps that have higher energy efficiencies.
The efficacy of mercury vapour lamps is low, between 40 and 50 lumens watt. The efficacy
of fluorescent and metal halide lamps is between 80 and 100 lumens/watt.
The 42 W compact fluorescent lamp will not achieve compliance with AS/NZS 1158 with the
standard geometry of 80 m spacing, 7.5 m mounting height, and 20 m road reserve.
However it will give performance similar to the common 80 W
mercury vapour lamp while
consuming half the energy.
Two 24 W T5 fluorescent lamps can achieve compliance with AS/NZS 1158 Category P5 with
an energy reduction of 37.5% compared with the non-compliant 80 W mercury vapour lamp.
The 70 W metal halide and 70 W high pressure sodium lamps can achieve compliance with
AS/NZS 1158 Category P4 with an energy reduction of 14% compared with the non-
compliant 80 W mercury vapour lamp.
The efficacy of high pressure sodium lamps is between 90 and 120 lumens/watt in the
photopic (day light) range of vision and between 50 and 70 lumens/watt in the scotopic
(night) range of vision. For street lighting the range of vision lies between the photopic
(daylight) and scotopic (night). High pressure sodium lamps have the highest efficacy when
used for street lighting at high illuminance levels, that is, towards the photopic range, and
lower efficacy at low illuminance levels.
Mercury vapour lamps have about half the efficacy of the fluorescent, metal halide and high
pressure sodium lamps.

Table 3 assumes that the existing street light luminaires need to be replaced and that the
cost of replacement luminaires will be the same regardless of the selected technology. This
assumption is based on most existing street lights being due for replacement as they would
have exceeded their expected life. Prior to 2005, Australian Standards specified a life of 15
years for street light luminaires. AS/NZS 1158 – 2005 now specifies 20 years.
The running cost per kilo-lumen p.a. for the 80 W

follows:
Re-lamp cost p.a. =
($2.95 + $32.50 + $42.50) ÷ 4 years
