QUESTION NO. 10

QUESTION: Councillor N. Fennell

To ask the Chief Executive on the best way in reporting out of order or faulty street lights/traffic lights particularly when it becomes a dangerous situation.

REPLY:

There are two ways to report faulty public lighting assets that are possibly causing a health and safety concern. 

The first (and preferable) way is to contact the public lighting section directly by phone on 01 414 9294. This information is available on our website at:

Public Lighting - SDCC https://www.sdcc.ie/en/services/transport/public-lighting/public-lighting.html

giving details regarding the pole number, nature of the problem and location e.g. nearest house number. 

Once reported in this way, this information is logged and sent on to our maintenance contractor as soon as possible. 

Alternatively public lighting and traffic signals faults can be reported to our Customer Care team at 01-4149000 or at info@sdublincoco.ie where it will be logged and actioned as soon as possible.
