Traffic Light Maintenance

The City of Pataskala is responsible for maintaining the traffic lights located in the City. The traffic lights, generally located along SR 16/Broad Street, sometimes require repair including replacement of non-working bulbs, resetting the timing, and general maintenance. The City inspects    the controller boxes periodically to ensure the lights are functioning accurately. If you ever notice that a traffic light is not functioning properly, please contact the Public Service Department at 740-927-0145.


Street Light Maintenance- City Owned Lights Located Within Subdivisions

The City of Pataskala is also resonsible for maintaining the street lights located within subdivisions. These lights are the property of the City, therefore, any and all maintenance must be completed by City personnel or a contractor hired by the City. Our goal is to have a street light repaired within 24 hours from when it is reported. However, this timeframe can be slightly lengthened if numerous repairs are required. To report a street light that needs repair, please contact the BJ King, Public Service Director, at 740-927-0145 or at bjking@ci.pataskala.oh.us.  

Street Light Maintenance - AEP Owned Lights

AEP owned street lights are located in various areas of the City. The AEP lights are installed on wooden utility poles and extend out over the street from the pole. The picture to the left shows what the AEP street likes look like. The City coordinates repairs with AEP for repair of these lights. Ultimately, the repairs are scheduled and completed by AEP. Repairs of these lights generally take slightly longer than the repair of the City owned lights in subdivisons. To report an AEP street light that needs repair, please contact the BJ King, Public Service Director, at 740-927-0145 or at bjking@ci.pataskala.oh.us.
