Car park lighting in Chatteris
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. We programme car park works in Chatteris around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Chatteris
For Chatteris retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Many car parks around Chatteris 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.
Our teams travel to Chatteris from across Cambridgeshire. Typical nearby jobs include Ramsey, March and Downham, so we can often combine survey visits.
