Default BBC NEWS | Wales | Partial street lights switch-off

A third of a county's street lighting could be switched off for up
five hours per night to say money.

Carmarthenshire council is looking at plans to turn off one-in-three
lights in residential areas and two-in-three on highways from 1230 GMT
to 0530 GMT.

A report says turning off 6,000 out of 18,337 lights could save
£67,000.
