Results:
Recorded crime figures for the three treatment areas show no associations between the introduction of street lighting schemes and changes in night crime levels. A breakdown of crimes committed before and after midnight was also available but this revealed no discernible differences. There were some reductions in crimes committed at night (in beats E and GJ) but this could not be associated with the lighting improvements .
