Street lighting not working

Reported via mobile in the Not working (NH) category anonymously at 22:32, Tue 26 December 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5356191.

FAO Mr Nick Owen Dear Sir, I am contacting your dept being very concerned that again the street lights along the Flimwell A21 traffic light crossings are not working on both sides of the carriageway. The public footpaths are completely blacked out & I consider the crossing & immediate surroundings to be a potential accident waiting to happen due to excessive speeds at this location. In view of the recent tragedy these lights need to be repaired/ switched back on as a matter of urgency.

Updates

  • Thank you for your report. We’re aware of the street lighting outage at A21 Flimwell crossroads. It has been identified that the outage at the Hawkhurst Road junction is due to a cable failure which is affecting the street lighting either side of the junction. Remedial work is planned throughout January to try and rectify these issues.

    Whilst we always aim to complete repairs as quickly as possible, timescales can vary depending on the complexity of work required.

    Kind Regards National Highways
