Spotlight on community safety: Council confirms permanent lighting for Twickenham Green
Twickenham Green, one of the borough's most used green spaces, will now benefit from permanent improved lighting following a successful year-long pilot that earned strong support from the community and local police. Motion- and daylight-sensor LED lights along the central path brighten when movement is detected and dim during quiet periods, combining greater visibility with energy efficiency and minimal ecological impact. Lighting has also been fine-tuned and bat boxes introduced to support local wildlife.
