Modern streetlights have transformed the Lalmonirhat district town into a dazzling urban landscape after dark, improving nighttime mobility and enhancing the city's aesthetic appeal. The newly installed lights along major roads and neighbourhood streets have drawn praise from residents, students, pedestrians and visitors, with many describing the town as the ‘City of Lights’.
The development work is being implemented under a physical infrastructure development project covering nine municipalities in Rangpur division, reflecting the commitment made by Disaster Management and Relief Minister Asadul Habib Dulu. The streetlight installation programme was inaugurated on May 11, 2026. Authorities have installed 54 decorative garden and streetlight poles along the railway station–Mission More–Circuit House corridor, with each pole carrying 13 modern lights, which locals hope will also discourage antisocial activities in dark areas.
