 Street lights - Ted

I don't drive in the dark now, mainly 'cos of car headlights coming at you. The street lights are a different matter. In the next borough, Trafford, they seem to have been replacing lamp-posts with ones about 25 ft high on some of the major roads. The trouble is, these lights are often up in the tree canopy, leaving the road in darkness. Surely posts about 12 ft high would light up both the road and the pavement a lot better. Our council replaced ours with tall ones so the people across the road now have a light level with their bedroom window and about 15 ft away.

Trafford have also retained a lot of the old Zebra crossings...mainly used by people wearing dark clothing !
