JPS is reporting that having exceeded its October target for streetlight repairs (2,544 street lamps fixed, surpassing the target of 2,000), the Company is scheduled to fix another 2,000 streetlights by the end of November.  This comes as part of the Company’s accelerated streetlight repair programme, which includes expediting the procurement of streetlighting materials from overseas suppliers, and a ramping up of repair activity straight into the end of the year.

The Company wishes to point out that while the vast majority of streetlights across the island are in working order, it understands that persons will be eager to have repairs expedited in their communities.  JPS is therefore informing the public that the repair of streetlights will be following a fortnightly schedule.
