Car park lighting in Grantham

Local car park lighting in Grantham
Many car parks around Grantham 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 programme car park works in Grantham around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
We cover the whole of Grantham, including the NG31 and NG32 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Great Gonerby, Burton Coggles and Sleaford.
