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