Local car park lighting in Amersham
Footpaths from Amersham car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Many car parks around Amersham 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.
Amersham is a substantial town, covered by postcode districts HP7, HP6 and HP8. We regularly work across Buckinghamshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
