  • We have investigated this report and assessed the issue is not the responsibility of Bromley Council. This could be because the location or asset is private property, an unadopted road or beyond the maintained extent of a road. We are unable to progress this report further and this report will be closed. Please note that Bromley do not hold records of private ownership but if the information has been registered, the ownership of private land may be found via a land registry search: https://www.gov.uk/ government/ organisations/ land-registry

  • Thanks for the response, however the safety aspect needs prompt resolution as it endangers the residents and also council workers. For example the Bin Men/Women are at risk due to the high voltage danger this lamp post represents. You can hear the arcing of the electricity.

    Can you please at least make it safe.
