Car park lighting in Wemyss Bay
What we do in Wemyss Bay: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Wemyss Bay 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.
