Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6464792.
There was a lightening strike on Saturday 7th Sept which hit a house in Glynswood Road taking out all electricity supply and broadband along the whole road. Also now it seems 2 of the street lights. Yesterday an elderly neighbour was nearly run over by a car speeding out of the town up the Brackley Road as she couldn’t be seen crossing the road. Due to there being only 1 pavement along this stretch of the Brackley Road it is necessary for residents of Glynswood to have to cross the road to get home. I would be pleased if you could look into this matter as soon as possible.

The Street Lighting Team aim to repair all faulty lighting within 20 working days, however, there may be some circumstances that this time for repairs is be extended. For example, if it is an electricity supply fault, this will be passed to the local electricity network operator to attend and rectify as we cannot work on their network, in these cases we will update you to let you know it is an electricity supply fault.
We are experiencing a system issue at the moment which is stopping us from providing updates on lighting issues, please be assured all street lighting defects are being inspected and fixed but until we have resolved the updates issue you may see the light fixed without receiving any updates.
We know that faulty lighting is very important to our residents, and we take all reported issues very seriously. In the latter part of 2023, we recruited night scouts to review all of the 40,000 lighting assets we maintain in Buckinghamshire, the information from this review and all customer reported issues are now being addressed and will be resolved as soon as possible.
