Multiple street lights not working

Reported via desktop in the Not working (NH) category anonymously at 16:44, Monday 3 August 2026

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9891530.

From junction of London Road and Little Common Road (towards Eastbourne) there are seven lights not working. There is a pedestrian crossing which is in total darkness and the footpath is very uneven (you have a sign up to say so!). I would say there is a danger to both pedestrians and road users. Been like this for at least a month.

  • Thank you for making your report. We have asked our inspection team to attend this location and assess the issue.

    If any work is needed, they will arrange for this to happen. Should no immediate work be required we will continue to monitor this during our regular inspections. Although we always aim to complete repairs as quickly as possible, timescales do vary as we try to minimise disruption to customers by combining activities into single closures and always ensuring the safety of our people. Kind regards,

    National Highways.
