The first phase of installing new alley lights in VIA Italia is now complete with six new alley lights as part of their “Alley Safety Project.”
The project is a partnership between Via Italia, the City of Windsor, Windsor Police Services, and Enwin Utilities.
“The new LED lights have significantly elevated the level of safety within the Via Italia alley network by extending and expanding openly visible view corridors. This has created conditions where people feel safer, and activity becomes subsequently more accountable,” said Barry Horrobin, Director of Planning and Physical Resources at Windsor Police Services.
