Street lights are as likely as domestic bulbs to simply "pop" and that's why I report faulty street lights on a regular basis - often three or four times each week.
Recently there appears to have been an increase in the number of faulty street lights in our area and over the past few weeks I have reported problems throughout our villages, most recently at High Hesleden, Attlee Avenue in Blackhall Rocks and on the road between Blackhall Colliery and Hesleden at Hardwicke Hall.
Clearly, constant vigilance is the key to addressing these problems so if you have any street lighting faults in your area please let me know and I'll make the necessary arrangements:
