In Lambézellec, luminescent paint to make pedestrians and bicycles safer

A safe crossing for soft mobility

In March 2021, Brest Métropole chose LuminoKrom® to make the brewery viaduct in the Lambézellec district safer.

Produced by Brest Métropole teams, this photoluminescent marking ensures enhanced night-time visibility for cyclists and pedestrians, even in the absence of street lighting. Thanks to this innovative solution, users benefit from reliable, continuous light guidance for safe crossing.

Luminous paint on the Brasserie viaduct to make night-time mobility safer

LuminoKrom® photoluminescent paint has been deployed on the Brasserie viaduct by the Brest metropolitan authority to improve safety for cyclists and pedestrians at night. Metropole de Brest's objective is twofold: to make this area safer, and to respect biodiversity by limiting light pollution.

LuminoKrom® photoluminescent road paint captures light during the day and lights up at night, without consuming electricity or emitting CO2. Deployment on infrastructure is quick and easy.

A look back at the benefits of LuminoKrom® photoluminescent paint:

« How can we better ensure the safety of pedestrians and cyclists at night? Perhaps by making the lanes reserved for them more visible. That's what this project is all about. Luminescent paint, which glows after dark, has been used to mark the cycle and pedestrian paths.»
