When the street lights are switched off, its very difficult to see house numbers, resulting in me either walking up paths of the wrong houses to check the numbers or shining a torch on every house. I also don't feel safe when it is s dark - anyone can be lurking around and it makes me nervous. Please reconsider this initiative - why cant you save money by switching off every other light?

I feel as a woman living on my own that I am vunerable when the street is plunged into darkness. I have religious paid my council tax for the last 40 years and feel that important services are constantly being withdrawn and wonder what I am paying all this money for??!!!! The amount I pay is always going up whilst the services are always being reduced. The council offices always seems to be extremely well lit!!!!

Why am I paying council tax and not receiving a service for street lights???? I sincerely hope that whoever has taken the decision to turn off street lights has the sense to reverse the decision.

Why does Lincolnshire council not just replace the old light bulbs with energy saving ones first rather than go for the heavy mob solution instead??

When the clocks change this October the lights will go off even earlier!!

We all know that the council has to save money but this policy is not safe.

Friends of mine also feel vulnerable with the darkness of the street and around their houses. This leads people to believe that the rate of crime will go up, which may be able to be statistically proven soon. Making people scared for the night to come in case of someone stealing their possessions or maybe even vandalising their property in some cases.

The turning off at midnight is better than when they went off at 10' o clock. But it is still unsafe for people who are out and about. Why should you feel like there is a curfew in place. Do alternate lamp lighting, put solar lights in place. Why should people who are coming home from/ going to work have the extra worry. The council has put green bin payment's up. I think that they get a lot out of council tax payers for very little return.
