Residents will have noticed that there were three street lights at the north end of South Tay Street have not been working, making that end of the street very dark. There was also a light out in the nearby council car park.

I have had several complaints about this and reported this to the Street Lighting Partnership Manager.

I have since had this update :

“We are aware of these lights but unfortunately, we are having issues sourcing components to repair them.

Many thanks to the residents who recently contacted me about the street sign in Cambridge Street at the Oxford Street end – it is broken and half of it is missing.

I have therefore asked the roads maintenance partnership to replace it.
