Car park lighting in Soham
What we do in Soham: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Soham 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.

Local car park lighting in Soham
For Soham retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Footpaths from Soham car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Soham sits within Cambridgeshire. We work throughout the CB7 postcode district and surrounding places, including Ely, Downham and Lode.
