Please fix the street lights asap

Reported via mobile in the Not working (NH) category anonymously at 00:02, Wed 10 July 2024

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6211075.

Please fix the street lights asap between M61 jct and M55 jct... it has been a major hazard for this stretch especially at rainy night, i have reduced my speed when i saw the sign 'lights are not working', but still i have almost lost control travelling on lane 1 at 65 mph, seeing a big puddle in the last second after a bridge joint (i dont know the exact location), but street lights are definitely necessary so please fix it asap.

Updates

  • Thank you for contacting National Highways about the streetlights.

    We have switched lighting off on this stretch of road to support the Department of Transport’s aim to reduce carbon emissions. These roads have been carefully chosen with all road users safety considered.

    We are still using road lighting where it is needed, however, we are confident that we can use less of it without a significant impact on safety. We will continue to monitor this and may restore the lighting if the situation changes.

    Kind regards

    National Highways
