I notice they are using the skinny metal pole for the signal pole.

In most of southern California, new signal poles are usually unpainted which aluminum poles. (The most common exception is Los Angeles, which usually uses the skinny poles for new signal poles as well as lamp poles)

Hey dbz, welcome to Galleryoflights.org! Seems like you are interested in traffic lights! Looking forward to seeing more traffic light interests in this page Wink

Aluminum poles? They are actually galvenized steel. That trussarm signal pole in San Bernardino is aluminum.

Did you try a magnet trick Dave Laughing Wink

It is hard to tell the difference since galvanized steel shines like aluminum.

Which intersection is this picture of anyway?

3rd st & 215fwy SB onramp, San Bernardino, CA. The freeway is getting widened an during the work they set up temporaries. I have seen temporary span wire signals on this project, I'll get a pic if they do it again.

I travel through that freeway often, as I visit the San Manuel Casino once a month.

I noticed that they were removing the overpasses carrying the exit ramps for some reason.

Interesting temporary set up, here we always use span wire set ups on wooden poles, sometimes some of the old signals pole will also be kept in place until the end of the work.

Lamp and signal poles are frequently recycled; one of the temporary signal poles in the pic looks like it was brought from Los Angeles.
