Local car park lighting in West Ham
We programme car park works in West Ham around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Footpaths from West Ham car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
For West Ham premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
