ya not only that there is a lot of HPS sky glow. it been cut in half with the FCO stuff and make the street lights in spots. but the newly redesign loop 410 brought poles closer together to eliminate the problem. so not too bad for that. other than that the city wasted a lot of moneny replacing FCO stuff as they go. wich 90% of the area is HPS  the rest is MV or metal halide.

The best is to install FCO fixtures with mercury and 4000K CMH lamps. For roads, 100-150W is enough for CMH lamps. They can also retrofit the existing lanterns with 4000K MH lamps and replace their bowls to flat ones if they aren't flat.

here in USA mercury fixture is no longer made. also that would be impossable to change out bowls becease there is a mix of Street lights on the roads. GE M400A2, ITT/Thomas betts 115/ cooper OVX HPS lighting. yes I agree that they shoud used FCO CMH fixture. But CPS energy and the city voted on dumb led that is comming grrr. in the resdentail hood will become target practice lol
