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

We programme car park works in Cockburnspath around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
