8534.JPG Bham New Rd street lights.jpg
Along the Birmingham New Road in the south of Wolverhampton. Street light replacement scheme taking place here now. The new lights are post-top columns with Philips Digistreets (LED), and the old ones are 1970s posts and brackets with 1990s Philips Traffic-Visions (HPS/S0N), along with one Philips Luma (LED) being replaced as well. Apparently the original 1970s lanterns here were Thorn Alpha 5s (LPS/S0X) from what I’ve been told.
8533.JPG Bham New Rd street lights.jpg
Along the Birmingham New Road in the south of Wolverhampton. Here is a day-burning Philips Luma and an older column being replaced. The new lantern is post-top and a Philips Digistreet, which is also LED just like the Luma. The other older lanterns in the background are Philips Traffic-Visions (SON/HPS), which is what the Luma replaced a few years ago.
8536.JPG Bham New Rd street lights.jpg
Along the Birmingham New Road in the south of Wolverhampton. Street light replacements taking place. This one example here is a new steel post-top with a Philips Digistreet (LED), replacing an older steel column with a Philips Traffic-Vision (SON/HPS) and a big long outreach bracket. This older street light looks like its been there since the 1990s at least, or possibly even the 1980s, so whether the Traffic-Vision was the original lantern or not I don't know. Its a shame to see these big long brackets go anyway, as you don't see street lights like this being used anymore.
8531.JPG Bham New Rd street lights.jpg
Along the Birmingham New Road in the south of Wolverhampton. Street lighting replacements, with new post-top columns and Philips Digistreets (LED) being installed, and old 1970s street lights with 1990s Philips Traffic-Visions (SON/HPS) being replaced. Seeing the conditions that some of the older street lights are in its understandable why they're being replaced, like with that one bent bracket for example.
8532.JPG Bham New Rd street lights.jpg
Along the Birmingham New Road in the south of Wolverhampton. Street lighting replacements, with post-top Philips Digistreets (LED) replacing 1990s Philips Traffic-Visions (HPS/S0N) and old 1970s columns and brackets. This is a closer shot of the damaged bent bracket. Not sure exactly what could of caused this, whether it be due to windy weather, a vehicle hitting the post, or if the lantern is just too heavy, but its been like it since 2011 at least, possibly even longer than that.
8535.JPG Bham New Rd street lights.jpg
Along the Birmingham New Road in the south of Wolverhampton. Street light replacements, with new steel post-top posts with Philips Digistreets (LED), replacing older columns with Philips Traffic-Visions (SON/HPS) and big long outreach brackets. The older lanterns were installed in the 1990s, and columns and brackets could have been installed in the 1980s, so the Traffic-Visions may not have been the original lanterns. Shame to still see these street lights go anyway, as they still look like they're in good condition as well.
IMG 8738.JPG Urbis Ampera Maxi Concrete Column Coseley.jpg
Urbis Ampera Maxi on an 8 metre tall concrete column, just off the Birmingham New Road (A4123) in Coseley. Having a big LED lantern on a long bracket and a column as short as this is rather unusual. The lantern before was a Thorn Alpha 1, which would of been SOX/LPS.

12m columns and Urbis ZX3s along Birmingham New Road in Wolverhampton. One of the lanterns has the canopy missing.

IMG 8589.JPG Bham New Rd, Wolves, street lighting replacements.jpg
The street light replacements along the A4123 in Wolverhampton. The example seen here is an old 1970s column with a longer bracket and a 1990s Philips SGS306 (HPS/SON), being replaced for a new post-top steel column and Philips Digistreet (LED). Both the old and new columns are 12 metres tall, but nearly all the other old ones have short brackets.

IMG 8597.JPG Simplex Jupiters Wolverhampton.jpg
Simplex Jupiter lanterns along Birmingham New Road (A4123) in Wolverhampton. These lanterns run on SON lamps and would of been installed in the 1980s, but the columns look as if they are 1960s and probably originally had SOX lights.

Along the Birmingham New Rd (A4123) in the south of Wolverhampton, where they're replacing old street lights with new steel post-top columns. Photo taken in the Summer.

IMG 8592.JPG Digistreets bham new rd.jpg
Philips Digistreets along B'ham New Rd in Wolverhampton. These columns originally had Holophane QSM lanterns, and the brackets used to be longer as well. The whole road heading to Coseley started getting relit back in the Summer of 2020.
IMG 0310.JPG old blue column & philips unistreet 2.jpg
Old 1970s column that is painted blue and now has a Philips Unistreet Gen 2 (LED). The previous and original lantern was some kind of GEC LPS/SOX type. This is just at the junction where the A4123 and A4037 meet, on the border with Dudley and Sandwell.
IMG 0311.JPG old steel columns & urbis ampera maxis.jpg
1990s and 1980s style of columns, but now with Urbis Ampera Maxis (LED). The post with the single bracket used to have an Urbis ZX3 (SON/HPS), and the other one with the twin brackets used to have Philips SGS203s (SON/HPS). All these brackets used to be longer as well. This is just at the junction where the A4123 and A4037 meet, on the border with Dudley and Sandwell.
