Description
Light pollution refers to the impact caused by inefficient, excess or obtrusive use of artificial light. The major sources of artificial light generated on the construction site include boundary lighting, security lamps, vehicle head lamps, floodlights and temporary building illumination. Light pollution generated by construction sites impacts urban residents’ comfort, road traffic safety, and like any other form of pollution, disrupts ecosystems.
Objective
To minimize light pollution and reduce the visual impact associated with construction activities.
