Many carparks are multi-storey, and constructed largely from
reinforced concrete. Digging that lot up to run a power cable to
every bay will be quite a feat.


Get real. They already have surface trunking for lighting. Its only a
ruddy car park.


Won't that make the floor a bit bumpy? Car parks have wide areas where
the only surface the vehicle is near, is the floor.


Multi storey ones have ceilings.

They manage ti ge the ticket machines into car parks all over the place
without any trouble,

And yes, you can have cables in 'sleeping policemen'
