Following 3 serious road traffic accidents along Lows Lane in Stanton-by-Dale, I am calling on Derbyshire County Council to re-light this busy stretch of road.
On a recent site visit, I noted that there are at least nine lampposts that are no longer in service because they were historically powered and maintained by the former Stanton & Staveley Ironworks, leaving Lows Lane in darkness.
Given the clear risk of further RTAs and the significant increase in the amount of traffic using the road, both commuters and HGVs, I have written to the County Council to ask them to either adopt or replacing the lampposts and restoring streetlighting to the area as a matter of urgency.
