• Probably the busiest A road in Derbyshire, at a junction with a central traffic island that has been wiped out more than once, and above a bus stop, should be a high priority to sort I would have hoped. Very dark out there without this lighting column, and the large trees that reduce the effect of adjacent columns.

• This light has been non-functional for months and months now. It is on a very busy main road and is right next to a bus stop. It is really unsafe and unacceptable that it has been out of action for so long despite multiple reports by myself and others. This problem requires immediate attention please.
