HL Deb 01 November 2001 vol 627 c179WA
Lord Higgins

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What data they have on the time taken to replace damaged lights on traffic islands; and whether the time taken has increased. [HL976]

Lord Falconer of Thoroton

There are no data collected centrally on the time taken to replace damaged lights. Local authorities are responsible for organising the necessary inspection and maintenance procedures for their roads. Response and repair times often vary depending on the strategic importance of the site.
