Advanced Lighting Technologies (ADLT) was recently engaged to help illuminate Brisbane’s largest city park, the City Botanic Gardens, increasing usability for patrons at night while still maintaining the gardens historic significance.

Located in Gardens Point and bordered by the Brisbane River, the Botanic Gardens is the premier public and recreational space in Brisbane. ADLT was engaged to help illuminate the gardens, making it safer to walk through at night, and reduce both energy consumption and maintenance costs.  ADLT’s design also needed to maintain the Botanic Garden’s heritage appearance.

This was achieved using the Cree Edge Series LED luminaire, coupled with a custom pole specifically designed to match the fitting. Backed by a 10 year warranty, the Cree Edge Series is ideal for illuminating any open-space application including footpaths and parks. It has been installed in many public spaces around Australia.

Using a mixture of 3.5m and 7.5m poles, the luminaires were carefully positioned alongside existing mature trees located within the Gardens. All pathways had to be lit in accordance with AS/NZS 1158 (category P3). ADLT worked closely with the winning contractor to ensure the entire project from concept to installation ran smoothly.

Satisfied with their services on the Botanic Gardens lighting upgrade, ADLT has since supplied lighting to another two city parks nearby.
