Car park lighting in Newport
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Newport and Gwent. Older columns in Newport sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.

Local car park lighting in Newport
Many car parks around Newport 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.
Footpaths from Newport car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
For Newport premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
