On city maintained streets, the city is coordinating our efforts with the power companies to enhance street lights which are being installed at every intersection and approximately every 150-200 feet on streets, bringing our system to AASHTO standards. This also includes decorative lighting.

A street light is also required on a dead-end street that is over 200 feet long and on all cul-de-sacs. Additionally, the city may have additional street lights installed if such lighting is needed in sharp curves that may create a safety hazard for motorist.

To report a light outage, call (919) 775-8351 with pole number and location information or call Progress Energy directly at 1-888-326-3344.
