Car park lighting in Virginia Water
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. We programme car park works in Virginia Water around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Virginia Water
Footpaths from Virginia Water car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
For Virginia Water retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
We cover the whole of Virginia Water, including the GU25, TW20 and KT16 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Egham, Chertsey and Staines.
