Lighthouses could be switched off under new plans (in england)
by Stu on Thu Mar 18, 2010 6:41 am
Beachy Head lighthouse in Sussex, along with four others around England, may soon be switched off under new proposals.
Trinity House, the General Lighthouse Authority for England, Wales, the Channel Islands and Gibraltar, which owns most of the country's lighthouses, is consulting on proposals to stop using the historic buildings to guide sailors.
Their experts believe the development of hi-tech aids has rendered them unnecessary.
Most vessels, even smaller ones, now use satellite navigation systems like GPS and no longer rely on the beam from lighthouses
