Dark and scary area

Reported via desktop in the Potholes and maintenance category anonymously at 17:07, Saturday 10 January 2026

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

This short path could really benefit from a streetlight: there is a lot of foot and bike traffic coming through, but it is very difficult to see in the dark as there is no light that reaches here. Could a streetlight or similar be installed? It would help minimise people-bike collisions, and slipping on ice and wet leaves! Thank you.
