Six Lamp posts have been off in a row between Lensbury Way and Wolvercote Road (closer to Wolvercote Road) for the last couple of months, making this pedestrian walkway dark and potentially dangerous, can they be turned back on / fixed?

The lamp-posts and the basketball court area is all off, I expect it is because of filming regularly happening in the area so they want to control the lighting but it does make it unsafe after dark (it is a very well used path to link Abbey Wood Station / Overton Road to Wovercote / Yarnton Way

Still open, via questionnaire -
These lights still do not go on along this pedestrian path, they were replaced with fake ones (that worked!) during recent netflix filming so be good if the real ones were fixed. The same solar/LED lamp posts further south do work but then stop as it approaches Wolvercote Road.
