As a professional street light pole supplier with rich project experience, we know that the suitable pole height is important for lighting effect and saving project cost. I've sorted out a practical height and power matching guide for most of common roads.

1. Residential Areas & Park Walkways

For community roads, pedestrian paths, and park lanes with slow walking speed and low vehicle flow, we recommended pole height is 3–5 meters, matched with 20W–40W LED street lights.

2. Village Roads & Rural Branch Roads

For rural roads and suburban branch roads with narrow road width and intermittent traffic, the standard pole height is 6–7 meters, fitted with 40W–60W lamps.

3. Urban Secondary Roads & Industrial Park Roads

City branch roads, factory zone roads and commercial zone roads require higher brightness and wider coverage. We recommended pole height is 7–9 meters, with 60W–100W LED street lights.

4. Urban Main Roads

For main city roads with large traffic volume and fast driving speed, 9–12 meters poles with 100W–150W high-power lamps are preferred. Longer pole spacing and higher luminous efficiency ensure high-standard road illuminance and driving safety.

5. Highways

Highway lighting demands ultra-wide coverage and high durability. We suggest 12–15 meters high poles and 150W–240W LED lights to meet high-level traffic lighting standards.

I hope these will be helpful to all of you.
