In Mayor Duggan’s first “State of the City” (SOTC) speech (02/26/14), he promised many things from a bureaucratic, planning heavy 10 point plan. One of those many numerical goals that he set was to install 500 new streetlights each week.

Based on the spotty and often missing data on the Detroit Dashboard, the average actually comes out to 953 new streetlights installed each week from 07/19/14 – 01/10/15 (some missing weeks). It appears that this was one metric out of many that the Mayor was able to make good on.
