Recently I have found that using The LoveLewisham site to report matters like this can be VERY effective.

Fixes for street lighting, pavement damage, flytipping, graffiti amongst many other things tend to get a very rapid response.

Making a report is fairly simple and taking a picture and including it is a good idea.

Various apps (for Iphone LoveCleanStreets) exist if you have a suitable phone and in that process often the location is automatically added.

Here is an example of a street light problem reported late Sunday morning and fixed by Tuesday lunchtime.
