Traverton’s city council wants to minimize the city’s average yearly expenditures on its traffic signal lights and so is considering replacing the incandescent bulbs currently in use with arrays of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as the incandescent bulbs burn out.
I am just failing to search the concord between the meaning of the underlined part and the main sense of the sentence.
What is the role of the underlined part in the meaning of the sentence?
It’s not a particularly well-written sentence, but the meaning is that as the current incandescent bulbs burn out, they will be replaced with the LEDs.
This might clarify it a little:
Traverton’s city council wants to minimize the city’s average yearly expenditures on its traffic signal lights and so is considering replacing the current incandescent bulbs, as they burn out, with arrays of light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
Compared to incandescent bulbs, LED arrays consume significantly less energy and cost no more to purchase.
