Local car park lighting in Lifton
Footpaths from Lifton car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
New columns in Lifton need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Lifton is a local centre, covered by postcode district PL16. We regularly work across Devon, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
