Local car park lighting in Campbeltown
Many car parks around Campbeltown still use sodium lanterns on columns that are structurally fine. Swapping just the heads for LED gives whiter, more even light for much less power.
Footpaths from Campbeltown car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
