Greenway Bridge, Co Waterford – LED Lighting 

Bridge Lighting

The Waterford Greenway is a 46 km off-road cycling and walking trail along an old railway line and includes a modern pedestrian Bridge which spans a busy roadway.  The LED strip lighting system was customised by VeeLite to install within the Archway of the Bridge and exact lengths were supplied to match the Bridge construction.  The Lighting system is almost invisable by daytime, but the Bridge is an attractive night time feature as well as providing functional pathway lighting for night time walkers.

LED Strip Lighting

LED Strip Lighting designed for external use presents a great opportunity for external illumination. The lighting is easier to conceal, provides uniform constant light over a distance and can provide significant light output without glare.

Bridge Floodlighting

A traditional approach to Bridge Lighting is to install Floodlights at the Base of a Bridge and directed upwards to illuminate either the underside of the Bridge, or above the Bridge illuminating the Bridge Towers or suspension cables. 

The Viaduct Bridge on the Waterford Greenway is an example.  Small 40w LED Floodlights, supplied by VeeLite were installed at the base of the Columns to the stonework and pointed upwards.  The LED Floodlights were 3K to add warmth to the Bridge appearance and Barn-doors were added to each Floodlight to prevent light spill.

VeeLite offer a choice of LED strip lighting systems suitable for external lighting applications.These include illumination under/in street furniture, walls, signs, alcoves, borders, gardens, windows, etc.  An RGB version is also available as well as Blue, Yellow, Red, Green or Yellow or White in 3K, 4K.

Street Lighting on the Bridge itself

In addition to lighting a Bridge for the benefit of remote viewers, the Road or Pathway across a Bridge may require illumination to Street or Pathway standards.   In many cases, Streetlighting illuminates these roads and is often a continuation of the Streetlighting along the adjoining roads. 

The 2 photos show different styles of Streetlight – modern Streetlights with curved lighting Poles and architectural, heritage style Streetlights on the other Bridge.  VeeLite can provide special Flanged Poles or Custom Brackets to allow installation on to a Bridge.
