We are currently in Year 4 (1st July 2007 to 30th June 2008) of the 5 year replacement programme.
In the first 3 years lampposts have been replaced throughout the City. Priority has been given to the wards with lampposts in the worst condition.
A works programme for year 4 and 5 is detailed below. It should be noted that the programme is subject to approval from the Joint Street Lighting Committee and may vary due to operational difficulties, such as bad weather.
