'Obscenely bright and intrusive' Christchurch streetlights dimmed
Gary Bridgman’s Christchurch home is free from the spotlight after almost two months of being lit up like a sports stadium.
The Fendalton resident first raised concerns with the Christchurch City Council over “obnoxiously bright” new LED streetlights blanketing his property at the start of September – the day after they were installed.
About four weeks went by and a solution didn’t come, prompting Bridgman to contact Stuff.
A further two weeks passed and more follow-ups were made before the lights were eventually dimmed on October 6.
