New Haven residents clamoring for working street lights

Where the Quinnipiac River meets the winding road of Front Street, parents can found on most afternoons spending some quality time with their kids. But during the fall season with each passing second the moments get shorter and shorter in part some say due to that fact some of the street lamps don’t turn on when the sun sets. “They’re gonna need those lights,” said parent, Alexander Juarez. “Anybody can come and snatch a kid up.” It’s one of those problems that just seems to persist says homeowner, Ronald Newman. He estimates as many as 16 of the street lights on the roadway are not working properly.
