Erode City Municipal Corporation has floated a tender for providing new LED street lights on existing EB poles across Zone 2, filling coverage gaps rather than replacing an entire lighting network.

Why EB-pole tenders are different

Fitting fixtures onto existing electricity board poles, instead of erecting new poles, keeps costs and installation time down тАФ a common approach for municipal corporations topping up coverage in already-electrified zones.

Timeline

The tender closes August 19, 2026, and sits alongside a broader wave of ward and zone-level LED tenders moving through Tamil Nadu municipal bodies this month.
