Street Lighting Issues: Wester Drylaw Place
After the recent footpath upgrade in 2012 and installation of a new street lighting system along the length of Wester Drylaw Place, Drylaw Telford Community Council was contacted by residents of Wester Drylaw Place who said that they were unhappy with the new form of street lighting installed and asked if the Community Council if they could take forward their grievances to the CEC Lighting Dept.
This we did and the outcome was after a meeting and a walkabout in the Wester Drylaw Place with a representative from CEC Lighting Dept. it was agreed that CEC Lighting Dept. would for a trial period over the winter install other options of lighting along Wester Drylaw Place and then survey the residents as to their preferred option and this would then be installed.
This survey form was delivered on the 30April 2013 to all addresses in Wester Drylaw Place.
Drylaw Telford Community Council urges all residents of Wester Drylaw Place to complete the survey form and return it; it’s Freepost or go online and complete it at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/EdinburghLights
This was a community-led initiative, so participation by all residents of Wester Drylaw Place in completing this survey form will go a long way in making Wester Drylaw Place a brighter and safer area to walk.
