Left Turn Signals Being Removed

(1/2) > >>

dbz77:
Is there any reason why left turn signals located on median-mounted poles are being removed in favor of left turn signals located on overhead mast arms? One of my pics was that of a left turn signal pole which had been removed in February.

Jace the Gull:
I think it really depends on the state.....I have noticed each state has different traffic light styles......

Mike:
It could be that they were gettign hit too much. Or that they just want fewer poles...

joe_347V:
Ontario's one of the few places that still uses median mounted signal poles, here's an example of a protected left turn:

Mike:
They HATE median mounted poles here becuase they're a big target for gettign hit. We use lots of single pole installations here. Just watch those long masts sway in high winds. :o I'm always waiting for them to snap down and crush everythign below it, but of course that doesn't happen lol.
