Thanks for the report. These is a supply issue to this streetlight that our contractor is working on. The light will be restored as soon as possible.

Dear street lighting team,
Hope the lamp over the arch can be fixed soon.
Residents have expressed concern that the new lamps on the lampposts in Park Town are smaller than the originals. We very much hope you will NOT replace the lantern over the arch with a smaller one - it would be out of scale.

Regret that the lamp is still not working. As the nights draw in, it becomes more of a problem, as the alley is now very dark during hours when people are out and about

A. Light still not working, That's quite disappointing, after the latest status change to "investigating" after Councillor James Fry chased this up more than TWO MONTHS ago. b. as Sarah Goodman Chair Park Town Trust has suggested, please do NOT replace the lantern overthe arch with a smaller one - it would be out of scale.
