The project was carried out from February 25th to 28th, 2026, involving the installation of approximately 80 solar-powered streetlights along a 2km stretch of road. During the four days of construction, youth union members collaborated with local authorities to survey the site, develop technical plans, excavate foundation pits, erect steel poles, install, inspect, and accept the system, ensuring safety, quality, and sustainable operation.

The illuminated road contributes to ensuring security and order, traffic safety, and creating favourable conditions for the daily life and travel of local people, while also demonstrating the proactive spirit and responsibility for the community of the youth union members.
