Not sure why they can't just repair what is there, but additional lighting is a good thing.

Maybe the wind and rain took it's toll on the electronics and wiring.

One area that would benefit light is in Maho around the golf course. In November they were only on one night that we noticed. It is such a dark drive and I am sure that folks would appreciate some light to navigate the turns on that particular road.

There are lights all through the golf course Maho to Cupecoy. Sometimes they don't work, sometimes they strobe and blind you, but they are there. I expect (hope) quite a few will go to areas that never had street lighting.

That would be great if they did.

That is private property.

I do recall reading somewhere that Rhine Road is private property, even though it essentially operates as a public way.
