What the notice says

Pittville Recreation Centre (Site) is owned by the Authority and managed by The Cheltenham Trust. The existing lighting in the Sports Hall and Cricket Hall at the Site is nearing the end of its economic life and it is proposed that it is replaced with a new lighting scheme. The intent of the scheme is to provide an excellent lighting provision that also reduces energy demand through intelligent switching and controls. This will be achieved by replacing the existing lighting in both the Cricket Hall and the Sports Hall with new models, utilising the existing wiring but with alterations to switching and controls to provide the intelligence required.
