GE lights up Tower Bridge

By: KCS-content

Add as a preferred source on Google

Tetra contour cable – GE’s durable alternative to neon lighting – follows the metal curves on either side of the towers and across the walkway

Tower Bridge’s Cornish granite and Portland stone cladding protects and embellishes an underlying framework of steel with a Victorian Gothic flourish

LED projectors enhance the architecture of the bridge by flooding the two towers with a rush of light from below. The system has three colour options, allowing the bridge to take on different looks for special events

In total, the new lighting system will save 40 per cent of energy consumption when compared to the previous artistic lighting
