New lights for Kendal multi-storey car park

Westmorland Shopping Centre’s car park in Kendal

New lighting will be installed at a Kendal multi-storey car park.

The car park, at Westmorland Shopping Centre, was identified as a site with an opportunity to save money and carbon by looking at alternative lighting methods.

Work has started this week to install LED lights by Colin Briscoe Construction Limited and is expected to last six months.

The project will be completed in phases to allow the majority of the car park to remain in use, with sectional closures for each stage to ensure the safety of those carrying out the works and car park users.

A traffic and pedestrian management programme will be in place throughout the project. 

Work will start with the removal of the existing luminaires and include replacing distribution boards and circuit breakers, adding an additional 154 luminaires and 118 extra emergency lights to achieve required lux levels.  

Councillor Giles Archibald, Westmorland and Furness Council’s cabinet member for climate, biodiversity and environmental services, said: “Installing energy efficient lighting comes within the scope of projects the council can influence in our drive to reach a net zero position by 2037, as part of our five-year Climate Action Plan.

“The plan identifies suitable actions the council can take across the organisation to reduce emissions, reduce environmental inequalities and create a climate positive council culture, building on the council’s ‘ecologically aware’ value.  Each individual project takes us one step closer towards this goal.”
