The council continues: “It means we are currently not able to remotely identify faults in the street lighting system.
“The default mode for faults is that the lights stay on to ensure that roads are not left completely unlit and become a safety concern.
“There are a number of steps required to resolve the problem, and we are working through these as quickly as we can.”
