PHOTO: Just days after a lawsuit was filed against JCP&L, the company has taken action, and have begun fixing bulbs around town. “They literally dropped what they were doing and dedicated their employees to correct the issue”, Mayor Menashe Miller tells TLS.
Crews were seen all day yesterday and today driving around Lakewood with a police escort, fixing the various issues with the lights.
Some of the issues include burnt out bulbs, short sensors, broken ballasts and in-ground wiring. The first three issues are the most common, and easiest to correct.
“The Township Committee will continue to monitor the situation”, Mayor Miller says.
The Mayor added, that he hopes that any future issues with the lights are dealt with before the number of burnt out bulbs accumulate.
The Mayor encourages residents who notice a street light out, to immediately report it to the Township by calling the dedicated number,732-364-2500, extension 7653 (POLE). TLS.
Great move ty
The next lawsuit should be against the njaw for inflating the sewer usage in winter months, billing practice!
All the AGING sewer lines,esp. the lines under the care of NJ American Water should be inspected , fixed and Sealed by NJ American. There is a Tremendous amount of water ( from the ground and storm water) SEEPING into the system ,which we have to pay to treat!!!
what is a censor ,why are we censoring light bulbs ?
North & South Lake Drive is all relit!
at least our hark work paid off -THANK YOU MENASHE!
the heat must be put to american water .
Funny how just yesterday everyone was commenting that the lawsuit is a stupid idea and would never work. Well it seems to have hit its mark!
This great news thank you Mayor Miller for a job well done. Now it is up to US to report any new street light outages. If we don’t report the outages it will NOT be JCP&L fault but ours for not reporting them.
