Bringing light to Bottle Alley
Hastings Borough Council has replaced some 500 metres of broken lighting with new state-of-the art equipment that is programmable for special effects, and can be synchronised to music to create a wonderful sound and light spectacle. The lights were demonstrated to councillors and businesses in the immediate area on Saturday, November 25.
Cllr Kim Forward, lead councillor for regeneration and culture, said: “The council would like to thank everyone involved for their hard work and commitment to this project. It is an absolutely magical walk along the beach that can be enjoyed year round.”

The new lighting was installed as part of a project to rejuvenate the historic Bottle Alley and create welcoming and exciting space for residents and visitors alike. Bottle Alley, located on the seafront between Warrior Square and Hastings pier, is open to the public as a thoroughfare.
