[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 494871, member: 1408"] I'm going to have a go at Birmingham Council on a slightly connected matter .......they are replacing sodium street lighting with LED which seems a good idea ( for once) BUT the usual modus operandi is to dig , plant a new column next to the existing , disconnect existing pole , re-connect new pole , remove old pole , make good pavement . BUT the new poles are the SAME height as the old ones , I'm sure they are expensive , so why not just fit the new lamp head to the old pole . ? I understand that certain areas have very tall poles with the new lights , which I presume is to do light spread etc . [/QUOTE]
