More lighting is to be installed inside Swansea's Singleton Park after concerns were raised over safety. It is almost pitch black in certain areas of the city beauty spot at night, prompting students to express their worries about being unable to see their surroundings whilst walking through. Swansea University Students' Union and Swansea University have now reached an agreement with Swansea Council to install new lighting this month.
It will run along the southward walkway towards the beach, along the path leading from the park's main gates. Work will begin on the new lighting this June and is estimated to be completed by the end of July. It comes after an ecological survey was conducted and approval was given to the project.
The move will create an added level of reassurance for students, students' union welfare officer Liza Leibowitz explained. Get Swansea stories straight to your inbox with our newsletter.
