Local car park lighting in Pentyrch
Many car parks around Pentyrch 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 Pentyrch around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
For Pentyrch premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
