Car park lighting in Bishopstoke
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Bishopstoke 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 Bishopstoke
We programme car park works in Bishopstoke around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
New columns in Bishopstoke need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
We cover the whole of Bishopstoke, including the SO50, SO53 and SO18 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Eastleigh, Hedge End and North Baddesley.
