The Keysborough Hotel in Melbourne's south-eastern suburbs has recently undergone a refurbishment. As part of the scope of works, the owners commissioned an 'airport runway-style' lighting system as part of an upgrade to their drive-though bottle shop.

The brief was to entice patrons to enter the drive-through using chasing lights within the road either side of the drive-in lane. Lightmoves designed a complete system utilising Megabay's new Omnyx Luxeon IP68 LED uplighters and an automated multi-channel Dynalite control system.
