Car park lighting in Blantyre
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Blantyre and Lanarkshire. We programme car park works in Blantyre around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Blantyre
For Blantyre retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Many car parks around Blantyre 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.
We cover the whole of Blantyre, including the G72, G71 and ML3 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Bothwell, Uddingston and Viewpark.
