With effect from the summer of 2016 the lamps have been changed from sodium to LEDs. These use less than half the electricity, but give a similar intensity of white rather than yellow/orange light. They should also be more reliable. However, if you find that one is not working, please read the following:
Please note that with effect from December 2023 the lights do not operate between midnight and 5.30am
There are 14 street lights in Warham, which operate from dusk to dawn. On occasions these become faulty. We have a contract with an electrical contractor to carry out repairs. These are normally undertaken within a very short time, but this will only happen when the problem is reported. Please don’t assume that if you see faulty light, that somebody else has reported it! Take the responsibility yourself and let the Parish Clerk know – then it can be fixed. As repairs are undertaken in the daytime, (when none of the lights are working) we need to know which light is faulty from the list below:
