Westbound to Buffalo along Interstate 490 heading towards Southbound Interstate 390. These unusual lights, which are 150 watt HPS, BTW. was part of a massive reconstruction of the downtown section of the 490 that included new bridges as well.
Hmm. Odd that they used 150W HPS... RIDOT uses 400W HPS for the interstate now for new installations and 250W HPS for the ramps, though when the 400W MV lights were changed out, 250W HPS was originally used to replace both the ramps and interstate.
Both RG&E and National Grid (Formerly Niagara Mohawk) use 150 watt HPS along stretches of highway including the I-490, 590, Inner Loop (Rochester), NY Route 198 (Scajaquada Expressway), NY Route 33 (Kensington Expressway) {Buffalo). Incidentally, the I-390 heading South from the 490 to the Airport uses 400 watt HPS along the thouroughfare and 150 watt HPS on the ramps, but 150 watt HPS around the airport.
They replaced 30 X 12 foot truss arm poles with a myriad of GE, Crouse-Hinds, and American Electric lights. 150 watt HPS M400A1, A2, and A3, Crouse-Hinds OVM, and American Electric 25 and 325s.

I have seen them replace some LPS fixtures on a bridge in NYC
