Public Lighting Framework
Consultation has concluded
Project Update:
The Perth Public Lighting Framework was formally adopted at the September Council meeting. Comments provided in submissions were evaluated, documented and informed the preparation of the final Framework
Vision
The Draft Public Lighting Framework is to visually translate the unique daytime features and qualities of Perth into the night time environment for residents, workers, tourists and local visitors alike. The lighting of Perth will create a more legible city, reveal its character after dark, promote safety and connect its night economy through an innovative and holistic lighting approach.
Key Objectives
The vision is underpinned by the following key objectives:
A safer and more inviting place to walk and bicycle
Provide a high standard of lighting to footpaths and cycle paths
Create a coherent and connected nightscape
More diverse activity in Perth’s public spaces
Improve functional lighting for all uses
Introduce new light based attractions
An enhanced sense of place

Emphasise gateways, public art, historic sites and landmarks
More efficient lighting
Select and place lights to minimise use of energy and resources
