Petition Action

Surrey County Council must abandon plans to switch off street lights at night.

Petition Details

SCC plan to switch off thousands of street lights at night, to save around £210,000 a year. This comparatively small amount could easily be saved by measures such as reducing consultant use or abolishing the Chief Exec post, and prevent potential safety and crime issues.
