The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Decisions about local street lights are a matter for your local authority, not the UK Government or Parliament.
You could raise your issue with a local councillor who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them: www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors
You could start a petition calling for a legal requirement for all local authorities in England to operate streetlights all night, if that's what you'd like to see happen.
