Any attachment to a street light such as Christmas lights and decorations will affect the weight of the street light and the structural stability of the lighting unit. There is also health and safety regulations that need to be followed when hanging lights and decorations over a road to ensure the protection of residents and the public.
As such, anyone wishing to attach seasonal decorations to a street lighting column or across a road must seek decorative lighting consent and apply for a Christmas Lights Licence.
An applicant must seek decorative lighting consent from their local council to erect ornaments and decorations from street lighting and over a road.
