Rejected petition Turning off Half the street lights.....

More details

I would like to propose turning off every other street-light in acceptable locations ensuring it does not effect a pedestrians safety. This will half the electricity bill and dramatically reduce the levels of light pollution. in some areas the street lighting could even be completely turned-off at certain times of the night.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Street lights on all but motorways and major A-roads are the responsibility of local authorities (county councils, unitary authorities or London boroughs).

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
