Description
Along the Lower Don Trail, there is a section near the Don River and the railway line where there is no lighting. It's very dark there, and dangerous during an evening commute. There are at least 2 old light standards which are no longer working, but which may be able to be repaired. If not, placing some temporary lighting while this area is being developed would be much appreciated by cyclists and pedestrians alike.

About a year ago I reported the missing lamp standard (just where the east/west and north/south trails meet) to the City. The base is there but no pole or light. Predictably there has been neither response nor action. Last time I was there at night, over a year ago, the one other light at that junction was working. The light nearer the rail line has not worked for many years and does not look like a standard City light to me.
Thouigh I agree lighing is a good idea there are actually very few lights on any of the City's off-road bike trails.
