Car park lighting in New Mills
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. We programme car park works in New Mills around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.

Local car park lighting in New Mills
New columns in New Mills need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Many car parks around New Mills 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.
New Mills is a substantial town, covered by postcode districts SK22, SK23 and SK12. We regularly work across Derbyshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
