In all the suburbs and districts lampposts have been carefully placed so that it can light up those areas and improve visibility at night. The general maintenance and responsibilities for the lampposts are that of the local city council. When you find a lamppost that doesn't seem to be working properly, the council should be called and a technician sent to the area for the repairing of the problem.

If you are in an area where the lights are not in a good working order, you need to report it as soon as possible so that they can come out and repair it. Lights are a good safety factor as it will drastically improve visibility conditions. It can also be a good deterrent for possible intruders who are planning an ambush.
