CIE 115:2008
Lighting of Roads for Motor and Pedestrian Traffic Since CIE 115:1995, power consumption and environmental aspects have become important. There have been improvements in performance of lamps, luminaires and electronic control gear. Now possible to introduce adaptive lighting for roads with motorised traffic (M), conflict areas ( C) and pedestrian traffic (P)

CIE 115:2008
A structured model is developed for the selection of the appropriate lighting categories based on the luminance or illuminance concept. Then applying, eg, time dependent variables like traffic volume or weather conditions, the model offers the possibility of using an adaptive system

Criteria for Road Lighting

Roads for motor traffic Luminance
Conflict areas Luminance/illuminance concept (Eh)

Pedestrian areas illuminance concept (Eh and Ev and Esc)

Criteria for Road Lighting

Conflict Areas: When vehicle streams intersect each other or with pedestrians, cyclists or others. Change in road geometry. Parking areas, toll stations

Lighting Classes
Normal Lighting:
That lighting category which is appropriate if the same level is to be used throughout the hours of darkness.

Adaptive Lighting:
Temporal changes in parameters under consideration when selecting Normal class could allow relaxation of Normal levels.

Lighting Areas
Motorised traffic, M, (for drivers of motorised vehicles luminance) Conflict areas, C, (where traffic streams
intersect, or run into areas with peds. cyclists, or there is change in geometry or parking areas luminance or illuminance)

Pedestrian and low speed areas, P, ( for needs of pedestrians illuminance, H and V)
