Four to five street lights out on Pontesbury main road.

Reported via desktop in the 3+ Consecutive streetlights out category anonymously at 10:22, Mon 15 July 2024

Sent to Shropshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14151001.

Moderated by Shropshire Council at 11:28, Mon 2 September 2024

From the Pontsbury dental practice to the Horse shoe pub there are four or five lights that are not working and have not been working for nearly 12 months. This has not been resolved - please come and fix these lights asap. It is pitch black in the evening - walking the dog is dangerous dur to the lack of lighting. This needs to be fixed asap.
