Waste Of Money
On Saturday morning Lancashire County Council appeared to be servicing the street lights along Whalley Rd. Nothing strange there, however, they have left them all switched on permanently.
Does anybody understand why this is?

Re: Waste Of Money
No, because according to newspaper reports there are many councils that are making the street lights either dimmer after midnight, or turning them off altogether...to on save electricity.

Re: Waste Of Money
Bye-bye Accrington - Floral Market Town.
Hello Accrington - Festival of Light. Land of the midnight sun. Where if the sun goes behind a cloud, we switch the street lamps on to their most powerful setting.
