Car park lighting in Nottinghamshire

Car park lighting work in Nottinghamshire
We programme car park works in Nottinghamshire around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Many car parks around Nottinghamshire 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.
What's included
- Bollards for footpaths
- Structural and condition checks on old columns
- LED lantern replacements on existing columns
- Testing and certification
