After completing a rigorous analysis, our team proposed a solution featuring appropriate installation and proper photometry.

The City of Dollard-des-Ormeaux has commissioned our Transportation Lighting and Electrification Department to develop plans and specifications for modernizing the lighting at several of its sports fields. Thanks to our expertise, these facilities now benefit from more efficient and significantly better-controlled lighting.

The two soccer fields at Édouard-Janiszewski Park and the two baseball fields at Lake Road Park were previously lit by poorly arranged conventional fixtures whose light spilled far into residential streets. This situation created significant light pollution that disrupted the comfort of residents living near these parks and caused glare for park users, particularly during baseball games. To address these issues, the City sought to upgrade its facilities and fully convert the lighting systems to LED fixtures, enabling greater energy efficiency. After completing a rigorous analysis, our team proposed a solution featuring appropriate installation and proper photometry to meet lighting standards for a sports field, while respecting the environment, wildlife, and the night sky. Additionally, a curfew system was proposed to the City to ensure lighting is activated only when needed.

Our team therefore took charge of the entire project, including:

  • Demolition plans and specifications
  • Preliminary and final design
  • Construction plans and specifications
  • Technical support throughout the project

 

 Comprehensive and recognized expertise in lighting

With our team of 12 lighting experts, our department works on a wide range of projects beyond sports fields. We also specialize in street lighting, photometric studies, architectural projects, and lighting for tunnels, pedestrian paths, and bike trails, as well as many other types of projects. Accustomed to working within site constraints and adhering to the strictest standards, our specialists utilize advanced simulation technologies to provide each client with optimal photometry, regardless of the project’s scale or complexity. This meticulous work allows us to offer comprehensive, innovative solutions perfectly tailored to the needs of the municipalities and organizations we serve.

 We are proud to have contributed to the modernization of these sports facilities with more efficient lighting designed to blend seamlessly into the neighborhood.
