Only dimming? Round here whole swathes of them have been "unplugged",
some have even had their heads removed and most of the rest go off after
00:15 (or rather after 01:15 now the clocks have changed) leaving one
light per street in residential areas.

They've been considering that round here. It's already pretty black at night
(village). Certainly seems to be a retrograde step WRT accidents and
crime...
