The answer

Answered by Sarah Boyack on 7 Feb 2001 · 14 days after it was lodged, on time

The new street lighting erected on the A78 in Largs is designed in accordance with the national guidelines and therefore provides the nationally recommended level of lighting.The new system of lighting was not installed to improve the standard of lighting but was to replace the life expired lighting system previously installed.
