The Ultility Poles and Wires of Portland, ME

I'm calling that one....."Lines And Clouds".....it's a masterpiece!
 
They are replacing the old ones, but it takes over 10 years to move the lines to the new pole and the old one will sit for another 10

I've found that CMP is actually pretty good at moving their lines and gear to the new pole within a reasonable timeframe. They've subcontracted with On-Target for a lot of this work. It's the others on the pole (Consolidated, Spectrum, etc.) that dog it and take forever to move their stuff (years).
 
It's shameful when a surrounding town shows up Portland (this is in front of Costco). Imagine how much cable and wood could be saved if we just use mini poles and cut all the corners on the peninsula.
