Street Light

The City of Brandon’s street light program is designed to improve the safety of motorists and pedestrians along City streets during periods of darkness or low light conditions. City streets are illuminated by one of two types, Overhead Street lights or Ornamental Street lights.

Manitoba Hydro installs, runs and maintains the streetlights in the City of Brandon.

Phone number for Manitoba Hydro’s Westman maintenance department is: 1-888-624-9376.
You can also report burnt out lights online here.
Ornamental street lights which are typically found in the downtown core area, as well as lighting along the Riverbank walkways, are owned and operated by the City of Brandon.


Community and homeowner safety is a priority for the City of Brandon. Due to the extensive lighting network within our community, citizens are encouraged to report repair needs to ensure the safety of motorists and pedestrians along City streets is maintained at night.
