$1,000,000 – $2,500,000

The estimated budget for this project can be estimated based on the scope of work and the number of towers involved. Assuming an average cost of $50,000 to $100,000 per tower for the installation of LED lighting systems, the total cost for 11 towers could range from $550,000 to $1,100,000. Additionally, considering the monthly maintenance and monitoring services, the total contract value could range from $1 million to $2.5 million over the 3-year contract period.
