Car park lighting in Wheldrake
What we do in Wheldrake: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Wheldrake 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 Wheldrake
We programme car park works in Wheldrake around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
For Wheldrake retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
For Wheldrake premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
