Every area in the economic capital of Cameroon is lighted and the city is bright . The lights were placed by the organ called "Direction des travaux" in the Douala City council for security reasons.

Many places were previously classified as dangerous as truck drivers would miss to manoeuvre their trucks on time. Now the lights indicate both to the drivers and to the pedestrians where those roundabouts are located
