I moaned about my 6 visible Na Vapour streetlamps, plus the 2 mercury vapour ones for a long while where I lived previously. I moved to the courtyard, and it helped a lot, but not enough.
Then we recently moved house into a 3 story condo, with a decent sized back yard. I though I would be STUFFED with all the Na vapour lamps around, but the building shields it all. It is actually DARKER in my back yard than were I was before, despite being nearer the "CBD". At night, I look out my 3rd floor window and watch the moon, Crux, and later Venus.
I feel for you. It's a nightmare. ALL the *****ing I did to the local council fell on deaf ears, but they did change every second streetlight to light activated (car headlight activated). Didn't help much. Honestly, after 10pm where we were, there was a car every 30 minutes, NO one walking, and you could hear the cows. Wasted resources, as only council knows how to do.
