Monthly street lights & signals requests

How many street lights & signals 311 requests St. Louis residents file each month.

How this category is defined

What counts as street lights & signals: Broken street lights, outages, damaged signs, and malfunctioning traffic signals or pedestrian crossings.

In St. Louis’s raw 311 data, the following 4 service_type values are counted as street lights & signals:

  • Light Damaged
  • Sign needs attention
  • Single street light out
  • Whole block lights out

To reproduce these counts against the raw feed

SELECT count(*)
FROM <st._louis_311_raw>
WHERE service_type IN (
  'Light Damaged',
  'Sign needs attention',
  'Single street light out',
  'Whole block lights out'
)

Analyst tip: Austin splits street lights ('AE Street Light Issue - Address') from traffic signals ('TPW - Traffic Signal - Maintenance') and signs ('TPW - Traffic Sign Maintenance'). Calgary uses the 'Roads -' prefix for all three. Oakland uses the terse 'ELECTRICAL' and 'TRAFFIC_ENGIN' abbreviations.
