New
utility poles may violate policy
I suggest that any
attorney who wishes to represent future victims of accidents involving
impact with the new huge concrete "intelligent transportation" utility
poles being installed in the median of U.S. 1 retain for your files that
the Florida Department of Transportation "Utility Accommodation Manual,"
dated January 1999, states that non-frangible objects (greater than four
inches in diameter that cannot be easily broken) shall not be placed in
the median nor in the limited access right of way.
