I have finally come to the conclusion that the council just can’t get their act together on the simple things. They know that at his time of year it gets dark. But do they think about getting gangs of staff out to ensure all the street lights work and are fit of purpose—-? No, not at all.
They get gritting lorries ready for winter so whats hard about checking and sorting all the street lighs!?
We have issues with a whole line of lights leading to Carlton and we have a light in Drax that the council cannot make their mind up what to do with—so they haven’t done anything!!
We then have the clearing of gutters—I am afraid I gave up reporting them 2 years ago as they just do what the like and whats easiest.
If anyone else has a lighting issue in my ward then please let me know as I now have a seperate book for them all. It would also be remiss of me not to mention that in some parts of my ward lights have been done several years and they haven’t billed anyone yet!!
