IES DG-23-14 PDF Download

The IES DG-23-14 standard aims to provide guidance for the design of lighting systems specifically tailored for toll plazas. The standard recognizes the increasing need for efficient and reliable roadways, bridges, and tunnels, as well as the growing costs associated with their construction and maintenance.

One key aspect addressed in the standard is the collection of tolls as a means to fund the ongoing operation, repair, and expansion of these facilities. Toll plazas are considered a common method for authorities to generate revenue and offset the financial burden. In this context, the standard emphasizes the importance of adequate lighting design to ensure the smooth and safe functioning of toll plazas.

The document serves as a resource for roadway lighting designers, offering them the necessary knowledge and understanding to meet the specific lighting needs of toll plazas. By adhering to the guidelines outlined in the standard, designers can ensure that the lighting systems in toll plazas are optimized for effective collection of tolls, while also prioritizing the safety and convenience of the users.
