Odd...
Hmm it looks like MTO chose to use these [url=http://www2.schreder.com/documents/HESTIA%20EXTREME/English/Brochure/200611141540/HEX_Public_EN.pdf]Schreder Hestia Extreme[/url] lumes when relighting this stretch of Hwy. 11. They look sort of out of place on the MTO poles and arms eh? anyways I believe the lights they replaced were B2255s and OV 25s on 35ft aluminium poles.

I noticed this too the odd time I went up that highway. Really looks strange to what's usually used on these poles. Maybe this lume cuts down on maintenance costs resulting in a contractor having less drives up to here from a city.

Why's this pic so HUGE?! Shocked

I am doing a setting experiment right now...sorry about that!

Ahh okay. Laughing I thought something was wrong. Razz

O_o the pic is huge, anyways I've haven't seen MTO install them after this, instead sticking with the traditional AEL 125, M-400A3, and Cooper OVF.

Those poles seem pretty close together. I noticed they're anchor base too instead of direct buried. I hope all the pics don't end up like this. Doesn't the larger size use more space on the server?

Yeah anchor based poles are all that MTO will install now, if you look at Streetview, you'll see that the older poles are direct bury poles.

Oh and the pic thing dosen't use up extra space since it only uses the pic originally uploaded but it does stretch out the page so some of us will have to side scroll. I personally prefer the old width since on my resolution (1280X1024) I have to scroll side by side to see the pic.

Yeah, they look pretty odd on the MTO poles. Razz
