Description
New street light design flaw - although the new street lights have a nice vintage look and are prob more efficient, there is a significant design flaw in the design chosen by the county (or did bge decide?) The light is not distributed very well, with a large dark area directly under each light. This could def cause a safety problem as visibility is reduced - cars may not see pedestrians and pedestrians may not see holes or other obstacles. Please seriously consider a diff style of light that provides more consistent light. Hope the county hasn't invested heavily in this new design ... it's pretty bad from a safety standpoint. Thank you

We are in the middle of a galaxy and cannot see it because of it being daylight or hidden behind outdoor lighting that floods the sky blocking that view.
