Bulb needs replacing

This street light has not been working for over 6 weeks. There are several elderly residents living in this vicinity and this lack of street lighting is causing problems. There is also a bend in the road which isn’t easy for non residents to distinguish. Also a postal box where a lot of people park / wait or stop suddenly. The lack of light means residents cannot see who is outside their property before opening a main door. I can see this becoming even more of an issue as we approach Halloween.

The unit was attended on the 22 October and a lamp was replaced, it was working when tested. We have attended unit 3 outside house no 42, can you please confirm if this is the same unit as you are referring to. Thank you

This is the correct unit but it isn’t working at night - live outside at number 42 - not working since the bulb was replaced so something not quite right!

We have requested our contractor prioritise this job due to it being a repeat visit. unfortunatley I am unable to provide a completion date at the current time. Some units may be day burning (on all time) which will also be attended to as soon as we are able to do so.
