Details

TRB will conduct a webinar on Wednesday, November 14, 2018, from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM ET that features research from the Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP)’s Report 148: LED Airfield Lighting System Operation and Maintenance.

Because airports dedicate a significant component of their operating budget to operating and maintaining airfield lighting systems, LED airfield lighting offers the potential to reduce substantially maintenance and utility costs. Airports are accelerating the replacement of traditional lighting technologies with more efficient LEDs. This webinar will discuss the tools and strategies for the installation and maintenance of LED airfield ground lighting.

This webinar is sponsored by the Airport Cooperative Research Program. There is no fee to attend this webinar; however, sign into MyTRB.org to view registration information.
