Last week, Ballard made the news across the country for the LED streetlight testing on 15th Ave NW. The street was closed three nights in a row as streetlights were converted to LED and local participants gave observations about their comfortability walking, driving and biking under the new bulbs. The story went national; the New York Times ran this piece about the testing. Click here to watch a short video about the study or to read more about the testing.
