Why is the Town Hall not illuminated at night?

[Basalt 10]

Actually there are some floodlights and uplighters at the base of the TH. They just aren't on at night. What should be lit up is the Wicker Arch bridge as I've mentioned several times on SF.

It's the same at the station which is never lit up, nor the tram bridge over park square roundabout.

Wicker Arch used to be lit up but is now suffering from neglect again with weeds and trees growing out of it and the bulbs long since blown.

Time to resurrect this old thread..is the Town Hall going to be illuminated this Xmas? Maybe it is illuminated all rear around these days?

If the lights are there just switch them on already!

Doubt Town Hall will be illuminated, that'd cost money!

 

Area in front of the railway station is the council's responsibility. Thousands of people pass through there daily, but the street lighting there has only just come back on after months - But it still feels very dark.

Surley they can fit LED bulbs that cost next to nothing

SCC have their priorities all messed up. The Crooked Spire in Chesterfield is always lit up in the evening and it looks amazing.

At the least the 'crooked' bit is apt with SCC:hihi:

You can't just retro-fit an LED lamp into a street lighting unit like you would a table lamp at home. It would mean replacing the whole unit, which wouldn't cost next to nothing.
