Street light out, 25th February
Light on corner of Kirkgate and Marage. Old style lamp with modern fitting. Awkward to see and to be seen when crossing the road between tactile paving, as there is very little light on that corner of the junction. Light gas been out for about 2 months. Reported to N.Y. Council in early January.

Report on FixMyStreet
Street light has been out for months, 25th February
Reported this street light (No. 4, Cemetery Rd) and 2 others (on Kirkgate & Norby) at same time, back in January 2024. The N.Y. Council lights were fixed within days but this light apparently comes under a different jurisdiction and although it has been reported 2x more times since then nothing has been done to rectify the issue. This stretch of the road Is covered by tall trees and has high walls either side and is very dark at night without light.

Flytipping in parking bays and along the fence in Bakery Car Park Thirsk, 4th September
The rubbish in the car park is getting worse, it used to just be a bin taking up parking bays. But over the past few weeks it has increased to bin bags, veg baskets, old bollards, bits of broken equipment etc. This is close to the river and if not sorted soon it will attract vermin
