Switching off Street Lights from Midnight to 5am.
Council requested the views of residents in May 2010 on the switching off of lights and from the few responses received the general consensus was to switch the lights off and budget for the full costs in the 2011/12 financial year.
The conversion will substantially reduce carbon emissions, light pollution and yield a financial saving of about £2000 per annum.
The lights will go off around midnight and come back on around 5am if the natural light is not adequate. This will cater for early risers and those who arrive home late.
Council resolved in December to carry out the conversion at a cost of about £8300 for the conversion of all street lights.
The work will be carried out towards the end of January early February
