From his comments it would appear that Northern Power Grid is responsible for repairs to this section of lights, rather than the county council. With that in mind we will continue to apply pressure to the relevant agency to have these lights repaired as soon as possible:
The street lighting is out due to Northern Power Grid
supply failure, this has been reported
to NPG on 17th November we have requested their attendance as soon as possible. The first report of this section of lights being out to DCC was on the 10th
November. We attended on 16th November and placed an order on NPG to restore on
the 17th November. They have until the 8th January 2016 to restore however they
normally attend outages such as this well before this target date. We will keep
pressure on NPG to restore for an urgent attendance.
