  • There is an electricity supply fault at this street light and has been sent to the electricity company for repair, it depends on workload as to how long it takes but is in hand to be rectified

  • It has now been 4 months since this was first reported and it is very unsafe here at night. It needs to be fixed as a matter of priority otherwise someone is going to have a fall.

  • Walked through here last evening, light still not fixed. The puddles were very large due to the recent heavy and invisible. At least one very old person (me) nearly fell due to the uneven surface. Six months is too long to wait to get this fixed.

  • The nights are drawing in and it is very dark on a stretch of poor road with long puddles. Single people at night must feel very vulnerable. It is now nearly six months since it was reported.

  • Still not fixed - this is really unsafe due to the uneven road surface that’s not visible in the dark and the fact it’s a quiet alleyway. I have been followed home on this stretch before.

  • Still not working. Totally unacceptable given lack of alternative lighting on this road
