This street light has been down for several months. Its no 87 and is on the cycle track opposite the BMW garage on the A4142 just past the large roadsign at the end of Oliver Road to the left. Been reported on Fixmystreet but still not done. Very dangerous to cyclists and pedestrians as complete darkness from end of Oliver Road up to Horspath Road turning circle. Should be a top priority now to be done before winter. Feel very unsafe walking along there once dark and cyclists cannot see you so its an accident waiting to happen.
