One note and question:
"The quick progress has enabled the authority to advance its schedule for beginning work on Detroit’s major thoroughfares — a task that had been slated for next year, says lighting authority director Odis Jones.
That work, on streets including Michigan, Fort, Gratiot, Grand River and Jefferson, will get underway within the next month, he said. Lighting work for the entire city is slated to wrap up by the end of 2016."

Is there a specific reason why major streets would be last? Harder to do? More expensive? Some other reason?
Reading the entire article, there are so many things to like: no copper wiring, 2x the lighting [[lumens?), etc. etc.
“Our main roads are being lit to a standard that you will be able to read a magazine at night,” Duggan told the crowd late last month. “We are making some progress.”
"Let there be [[state of the art) lights" So bright one needs to wear their shades at night?
