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