Lighting down the railway trail from marfleet to somerden road is non existent

Lighting down the old railway trail is non existent and makes it dangerous to cycle down there during the winter months as it doesnt get light until late AM and gets dark early. Even with good bike lights its hard to see potholes, bushes or other people on the track. It must have been noticed, as the council do a good job of gritting down there which does help.
