Pole in the road?

Yeah. What the heck is that all about? The pole is on the wrong side of the curb. They must have widened the road or something. This is in the other side of Cranston from where I live. The pole doesn't look that old either. probably 10 years old at the most, which is a newborn compared to a lot of the poles around here!

Apparently, they couldn't move the pole to somebody's property

I think the road was probably widened after the pole was put in. The road has at least been repaved since the pole was put in, as there's no patch around the pole.

Can't say ive seen that here before

What the?

sarcasm right model25? I've seen it here but on roads under construction. they will stop consturction pending removing the poles, sometimes even pave the roads around the poles. but the section of the road is cordoned off.

Yea in construction cases I have but a finished road with no work being done I haven't

Yeah this is definitley not permanent. It must confuse the heck out of the plow drivers lol.

Instead of putting a longer bracket up for the light they just moved the pole closer to the road.

LOL. These tapered elliptical arms were used in the 60s and 70s so this arm's been here a while. The M-250R2 looks like a mid-90s one.

A while back, I saw on LG a streetlight in Europe installed in the parking lane, and was eventually hit.

I've been in parking lots where the light is installed in the middle of the space and yet someone still decides to park there and has half their car sticking out into the aisle.

LOL !
