What is the height of street lamps on municipal roads? Are there any norms in this regard?

The height of municipal road street lamps is generally determined according to road width, traffic flow, pedestrian activities and other factors. Generally speaking, the height of municipal road street lamps is between 4m and 12m.

In China, the height of municipal road street lamps is regulated. According to Code for Design of Urban Road Lighting (GB 50034-20 13), the installation height of road lighting should be determined according to the grade, width and traffic flow of the road. The specific provisions are as follows:

1. Road grade: Generally speaking, urban roads can be divided into expressways, expressways, main roads, secondary roads and branch roads. Different grades of roads have different requirements for the height of street lamps. For example, street lamps on expressway and expressways are generally more demanding, generally between 8 meters and 12 meters; Street lamps on main roads and secondary roads are generally between 6m and10m; The street lamps of the branch roads are generally between 4 meters and 8 meters.

2. Road width: The width of the road is also an important factor in determining the height of street lamps. Generally speaking, the wider the road, the higher the height of street lamps, so as to ensure that the lighting range of street lamps can cover all parts of the road. For example, for roads with a width of 10 m to 20 m, the height of street lamps is generally between 6 m and 8 m; For roads with a width between 20m and 30m, the height of street lamps is generally between 8m- 10m.

3. Traffic flow and pedestrian activities: The intensity of traffic flow and pedestrian activities will also affect the height of street lamps. In places with heavy traffic or intensive pedestrian activities, the height of street lamps will generally increase accordingly to provide better lighting effect and traffic safety.

It should be noted that the above are only general specifications, and the specific street lamp height needs to be adjusted according to the actual situation. In the actual design, it is necessary to consider the environmental characteristics of the road and the height of the surrounding buildings to ensure the lighting effect and beauty of the street lamp.

In a word, the height of municipal road street lamps is generally between 4m-12m, and the specific height needs to be determined according to the road grade, width, traffic volume, pedestrian activities and other factors. These specifications aim to provide good lighting effect and traffic safety.
