Street lighting numbers & duration
Dear Brent Borough Council,
I am writing to request information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 regarding street lighting within your authority. I want to request the following information:
1. The total number of street lighting units (including lamps, columns, or other devices used for illuminating public roads, pathways, and communal areas) currently managed by your authority.
2. The total duration (in hours) that the street lighting units are illuminated each day. If the operating schedule changes monthly or seasonally, please provide details for each period (e.g., each month or season) broken down by region, ward, or district.
If it is not possible to provide the information requested in its entirety, I would be grateful if you could supply as much data as possible, explaining any limitations.
Thanks,
Jamie Dixon
