Update 10/27: light poles 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 are completely dark now.

I appreciate the City Engineer attempting to fix these lights on 10/31 in time for trick or treating, but as I emailed him that night (with no response), the fix did not work. Traders Way has been pitch black for one week now, which seems unreasonable. Residents on First Street use this roadway to walk to and from the stores.

The fact that this has not been corrected is unacceptable. Completely dark area is unsafe.

Still out....

Yes. A week or so ago I received an email from the City Electrician that he was working with National Grid to try and determine / resolve the problem. I believe he (the electrician) had been on Traders twice already. On Friday 11/16, I emailed the Electrician and the Ward 3 Councillor, asking for an update. It has been 3 weeks with this dark roadway.

Thinking we need to carry flashlights....

Still dark. Status update, City?

I received an email response from National Grid last week, that they hope to complete repairs THIS week, week of 11/26.

Nice! Thanks.

Good morning everyone, I just spoke to National Grid this morning and this should be in the queue for this week. City Electrician John Giardi

National Grid has included me in weekly emails regarding this issue. From Friday, 12/14: "Our crews did find the issue that is causing the outage of the lights and did attempt to repair. However, it is going to require some additional construction work to reconnect the underground line. I have a call on Monday (12/17) with the supervisor to find out a timeline and I will keep everyone posted."

Nancy, thank you so much for following up and keeping us informed. I appreciate it.

12/18/18 email from National Grid: "I do apologize for the delay. It is on the schedule for next Wednesday 12/26 that we have the new conduit laid by a civil crew and then our underground crew will pull a new underground cable the same day (weather permitting). I will keep you posted on progress. Thank you."

12/26/18 - Street lights were repaired by National Grid and are functioning now, much appreciated by the neighborhood. Hoping for a quicker turnaround time should this happen again.
