Light Pole inspections
Unfortunately, there have been some tragic accidents involving fallen light poles at different sporting complexes thought the nation. As utility poles age, they will eventually develop decay or damage that can lead to instability. Since it is so common for people to be near the light poles at sporting events and parks, a decayed pole can create a real danger that most people do not think about.
