Local car park lighting in Killichonan
We programme car park works in Killichonan around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Many car parks around Killichonan 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.
Killichonan is a smaller town, covered by postcode district PH17. We regularly work across Perth and Kinross, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
