Reported via desktop in the Light is dull category anonymously at 16:53, Tue 5 August 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro
Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7983572.
The whole of the Golden Vale Estate GL3 2LU. I now can't go out at night because of poor street lighting when I return about 10.30 - 11 p.m. and poor mobility. It is not safe on my own. My small social life is curtailed as I can't risk a fall, and there is never anyone around, Issue since reduction of street lighting.
