Car park lighting in Dewsbury
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Dewsbury 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 Dewsbury
We programme car park works in Dewsbury around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
New columns in Dewsbury need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Dewsbury is one of the larger places we cover, covered by postcode districts WF12, WF13 and WF17. We regularly work across West Yorkshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
