They were better back then led lights hurt your eyes

Can we switch back to sodium lights?
Do you remember the soft, amber glow of sodium streetlights lighting up neighborhoods at night? That warm golden light gave streets a calm, peaceful feeling that many people still miss today. Across cities in the UK and US, those classic lights have been replaced by bright white LED streetlights. Officials say this switch helps with energy savings, lower electricity bills, and smart city upgrades. While LEDs are modern and cost-effective, something important feels lost.

The old sodium lights were gentle on the eyes, reduced glare, and created a sense of comfort and safety. Walking under that warm glow felt relaxing, almost nostalgic, like a simpler time. Today’s LED lights are brighter and sharper, but they can feel harsh and too strong, especially late at night.

From an urban planning and public safety view, LED lighting offers benefits like energy efficiency, long lifespan, and reduced maintenance costs. These are important for city budgets and sustainable development. However, many residents believe that lighting is not just about saving money—it also affects mood, mental comfort, and how we experience our surroundings.

Some cities are now trying warmer LED tones and smart lighting systems to balance savings with comfort. Still, many people hope to see that golden glow return one day. It reminds us of peaceful nights, safer streets, and the simple beauty of everyday life that modern technology sometimes forgets.

If business on the broadway circle have more than one car can you please stagger the parking along the roundabout rather than all park infront of one business. so there are some spaces left for customers to park and staff to park

Thanks

Even though our competitors think its a funny joke to tell people were are closing which is very petty
