Car park lighting in Oadby
What we do in Oadby: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Oadby 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 Oadby
We programme car park works in Oadby around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
New columns in Oadby need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
For Oadby premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
