Car park lighting in Colburn
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. We programme car park works in Colburn around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Colburn
Many car parks around Colburn 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.
For Colburn retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
We cover the whole of Colburn, including the DL9 and DL10 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Skeeby, Spennithorne and Marske.
