Footway Lighting

Home Town Council Who Does What Footway Lighting

Footway Lighting

The Town Council is responsible for the maintenance of 644 footway lights in Newport. Footway lights (generally 5m tall) are designed to light the footway with the additional benefit of lighting some of the highway; whereas highway lights (generally 8m tall) are designed to light the highway but often have the additional benefit of lighting footpaths. Highway lighting in Newport is the responsibility of Telford and Wrekin Council. Not all footway lights in Newport are maintained by Newport Town Council, some are maintained by Telford & Wrekin Council and some by the developers who constructed recent housing estates.

Estates such as Beechfields, Daniels Cross and Deer Park have their footway lighting maintained by Telford & Wrekin Council. In general, Developments constructed after about the year 2000 have not been adopted by the local authority and their lighting is the responsibility of either the developer or a management company, for example Smithfields and the new developments on Cheney Hill and Wellington Road.

Of the 644 footway lights that the Town Council maintains there are 633 that operate using a photo electric cell (PEC) i.e. they turn themselves on when it begins to get dark and off when it becomes lighter.The remaining 11 lights are operated by a timer from dusk to dawn.

The Council has undertaken to upgrade the lights on an opportunity basis to LED, as they use less energy than a standard bulb, and also because an LED lamp contains many small bulbs and is unlikely to completely fail. This investment is reducing electricity consumption and providing some savings to the Council .
