The lighting is installed from the “Y” to the round about at Canyon Drive. The SR 179 lighting cost the city $378,880
for the Pedestrian Lighting. This included 70 15-ft poles and 2 30-ft poles, and all the appurtenances that went with
them. As a side note, the City did also provide $62,500 in upgrading the other lighting (converting it from ADOT
standard to Visionaire). This cost is very low, it was estimated by ADOT at $907,330 (source – city of Sedona)

Note: ADOT is estimating $2.2 MILLION for 108 35′ poles on 89A – a waste of public money? Do the math – $20,370 per light 89A
Do the math – $5,412 per light on SR179 For what ADOT is proposing to spend on continuous lights, you could put in 150 SR179 fixtures for $811,000,
and have $1.4 MILLION left over for crosswalks and other safety improvements. Numbers are numbers.
