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