Overview
This development will feature the installation of floodlighting at the athletics track and grass soccer pitch in Kilbogget Park, Dún Laoghaire, Co. Dublin.
Kilbogget Park Athletics Track and Soccer Pitch
The floodlighting design undertaken uses the latest floodlighting design technology to reduce the impact of light spill on adjoining lands, trees, and hedgerows. The floodlighting for the pitch requires 250 lux level average and the floodlighting for the athletics track has been designed to achieve an average light level of 200 lux in accordance with World Athletics Standards. The lighting design uses high galvanised steel columns (2no. (P1-P2) 18.29m and 4no. (T1-T4) 21.34m), similar to those used in the all-weather pitches throughout the County.
