Car park lighting in Lydney
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Lydney 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 Lydney
Footpaths from Lydney car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
