Local car park lighting in Upper Poppleton
Many car parks around Upper Poppleton 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.
Footpaths from Upper Poppleton car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
We cover the whole of Upper Poppleton, including the YO26, YO30 and YO24 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Rawcliffe, York and Copmanthorpe.
