Is there a maintenance programme for our road lights?

Jun 01, 2013 Letters

Dear Editor,
A few years ago the Western section of the East Coast corridor was a very picturesque scene at nights as all of the road’s lights were in working condition and there seemed to be a maintenance programme in place to replace any defective or damaged units.
Much comfort was derived from the installation of these lights as security, road safety, and night visibility were appreciated by the road users who plied this route.
However, over the last eighteen months there seems to have been a total neglect of a maintenance schedule, as there now seems to be as many non-working lights as the ones that are actually operational.
I have not to date seen any evidence that suggests that the recent budget cuts have curtailed any such activity, so I am humbly appealing to the relevant authorities to have our lights restored.
