Last month I reported a HPS light that kept switching off for a few seconds then switching back on again has just this week been replaced with an LED!
Normally when I report a street light fault, they just fix the fault and never replace it with an LED.

Aah, the "turn on and then turn off" thing! For HPS this means a worn out bulb, the bulb is at the end of its lifespan, so a replacement bulb would have been required.
Now I don't know how much a replacement bulb would have cost, but given that North Lincs want everything LED anyway, they probably thought it would be best to just LED it now, rather than replace the HPS bulb and then LED it afterwards in a few months.
Speaking of, my village high street has just had some new lights fitted, and they are metal halide... Why use metal halide, they will regret it when the capacitors start giving in!
