East Sussex County Council are introducing reductions in streetlighting. This is what they say.
"We engage with the local police and they have had no specific objections to the street lighting changes that we have recently implemented. We will continue to work closely with them to ensure that any specific areas of concern are given due consideration and that existing lighting levels are maintained, or if required, reinstated in certain areas if any issues arise following the changes to the lighting.
To date we have installed part night lighting into Crowborough,Seaford , Peacehaven,
Telscombe, Newhaven and are about to start work in Lewes and Hailsham. Last year
we introduced similar proposals in Heathfield and Uckfield. The Heathfield
scheme has been installed for over one year and the Uckfield scheme
approximately ten months. Recent discussions with the Police revealed that there
has been no increase in reported crime or incidents of anti-social behaviour in
either area and there had not been any injuries resulting from the switch.
In the Rother District we will be proposing to change our street lighting in Battle, Rye, Hurst Green, Flimwell and Darwell Down."
