As part of its efforts to breathe new life into Bridgetown, the Revitalisation of Bridgetown Initiative (TRBI), a project of the Barbados Chamber of Commerce & Industry (BCCI) has embarked on a quest to improve lighting in The City.

This will be achieved through a private street lighting programme to address one of the major problems which stakeholders have identified. The improved lighting is expected to alleviate security concerns and to have a positive economic impact on retail, food and beverage, entertainment and cultural sub sectors after regular business hours.

“The private street lighting project will assist with achieving TRBI’s primary goal of developing projects and activities to protect and grow the existing 1 400 businesses and 7 000 employees and to provide an environment for new job and entrepreneurial opportunities,” a statement from BCCI said.
