Street light maintenance
Street lights light up roads and accessways for traffic and pedestrian safety. Major urban roads are brightly lit, with less lighting on minor and rural roads.
Report a street light issue
Common street light issues include:
- lights not working or flickering
- lights left on during the day
- lights left off at night
- damaged lights — particularly if they're causing a safety hazard
- street light pole that is damaged or on a lean
- access panel missing or left open
- lights being obscured by trees
- nuisance caused by positioning of lights
- a need for brighter or additional lights.
Auckland Transport (AT) looks after street lights along the road, including those mounted on Vector poles.
Vector maintains the electrical network that powers street lights, such as overhead lines and underground cables.
If you notice a fault, contact AT first.
