We provide street lights mainly to light the highway. There is no statutory duty for us to do so.

Part-night lights have sensors that monitor the number of daylight hours. When the clocks change, they can take several days to adjust. This is not a fault.

Our streetlights all have a yellow sticker with black writing on. If there is not a sticker then we are not the responsible owner.

If the fault presents an immediate danger outside of our normal hours, call the police on 101.
