Details Response to petition Title: KEEP OUR STREET LIGHTS TURNED OFF Petition Overview: 1. There is no published evidence of increased crime 2. Our streets are actually quieter as people "seem" less inclined to hang about late at night. 4. The cost of switching all the lights off has already been spent. Switching them back on will cost yet more money. 5. Then there is the pointless cost of running street lights all night-long for a small minority of night workers.6. All major junctions are still currently lit.7. Low energy lighting, whilst possible, are hugely expensive and produce a very uncomfortable light (particularly LEDs)8. Road traffic has actually decreased in roads to the East of St.Alans. Maybe drivers are keeping to the lit, major roads.9. Suggest altering the off-on times of street lighting to allow for late comuters. Possibly from 1am 10. The streets are much quieter since the litghts were switched off, let's not spoil it by reversing this decision.
