The ones on the right, they look very Ontario.

The ones on the right with even needing to stop and think.

Don't worry guys....the ones on the left will be gone soon!

None!!

Fine fine, I'll persuade them to put up concrete poles, MTO truss arms and MV Powerlite B2255s. Happy yet?

Quite happy

Niall...you are picky! oh boy! Dude...those are HID! NOT LEDs....they were installed just like last week or 2.....and they are gonna do the left side of this pic too!

he doesn't like The GE M-400 or M-400A.

Or fibreglass poles, sure it's better than LED or induction though - both are!

Ew. i don't like fiberglass either. It really hurts to get fiberglass splinters. I don't think plastic infrastructure should be used outdoors.

Another problem is it can't be recycled, concrete and metal both can be recycled but fibreglass and wood can't, that is another reason I like concrete poles.

I like the ones on the right more than the ones on the left, although I agree about the fiberglass poles. The utility here has some poles exactly like these, but they no longer install new ones. Any knocked down ones gets replaced by a concrete pole.

I've seen fibreglass utilty poles used in my area before, I think I might be some kind of test since all other poles are still wood.

i prefer the left row.

Funny thing... My area has been using fiberglass poles since the mid 70s or so! Most of the older fiberglass was only for posttops though. But I noticed the today's ones seems better since the newer ones are really smooth while the old ones had obvious fiber texture.....But I know a lot of fiberglass poles from the 70s still IN USE! Almost ALL the Mcgraw/Cooper Traditionares we have under my current electric company have the fiberglass poles by default...the older ones (from early 70s) are metal though. The wooden poles are actually an option around here today!

The arms up there are aluminum while the poles are fiberglass...

You sure fiberglass can't be recycled? I know fiberglass poles are lighter and easier to install and they don't rust and if you hit it, it won't HURT you because they are too light LOL!

Another thing...we have too much crazy drinking drivers now days, is it worth paying expensive poles when we know they will hit it pretty soon

The left row are metal...but some are kinda wearing away, and they are kinda boring...probably more fun in the 70s...but they are starting to look drab...as we all agree...the right row is better!

i prefer aluminimum poles.

My favourites are steel, aluminium and concrete poles.

My favorite pole type is a brushed aluminum finish anchor base aluminum pole holding a truss arm

My favorite truss arm is the 6ft stubby ones that MTO used to use.
