Indal Airtrace lanterns
Quinton, Birmingham. It was unusual to see these columns with casual Unistreet (LED) replacements. The old blue columns on the left are Sandwell council, and the modern black columns on the right are Birmingham council.
Columns with Indal Airtrace lanterns around Curzon Street. These were installed around 2012 and replaced old Stewarts & Lloyds columns. Although these street lights are still quite modern they'll probably still get removed and renewed again when HS2 construction finally starts.
Goode Avenue, between Birmingham city centre and Smethwick. Bright red street lights with black Indal Airtrace lanterns.
New John Street West, Birmingham. Old 1960s S&L street lights with Indal Airtrace and Philips MA50 lanterns, none of which would of been the originals. The Airtrace lantern in the foreground is a fairly new casual replacement.
Lodge Road, between Birmingham city centre and Smethwick. Bright red street lights with black Indal Airtrace lanterns. The other older grey column to the right has a Philips SGS203 lantern, and thats heading down All Saints Street.

This is an unusual twin bracket which you don't see often, at Spitfire Island in Birmingham. The lanterns used are jet-black Indal Airtrace, which would of been installed some time around 2012 to 2014.
Along the A38 in Erdington. The road's street lights are 12m jet-black columns with mostly Indal Airtrace lanterns, but strangely theres an Philips SGS203 casual replacement, which looks odd as it is an old fashioned design and isn't black like all the other columns and lanterns.
Jet-black 10m columns along Hagley Rd, at the underpass in Quinton. The lanterns on the left are Indal Airtraces (SON), and on the right are Philips Digistreets (LED). This is right on the border between Birmingham (left) and Sandwell (right), which is why the street lighting is different on each side.
Along the M69 outside Coventry, just coming off the M6. There is a variety of different street lights seen here. There are old 1970s style columns with Philips MA60s (LPS/SOX) along the central reservation, more 1970s style columns on the sliproad as well but with Urbis ZX3s (HPS/SON), and a fairly new replacement column along the main carriageway with a pair of Indal Airtrace (HPS/SON) lanterns. A lot of these street lights are really showing their age now and are in quite a poor condition. The MA60s here are now some of the only few LPS/SOX lights that are left on the West Midlands motorway network, and there used to be more of them on the sliproads of this junction as well, until they were replaced in the early 2010s for the ZX3s.
12m columns on the Coventry Road (A45) in Birmingham. In the foreground is a more modern post with an Indal Airtrace lantern, and in the background are older 1980s style posts with Philips SGS203s.
Black columns with short twin brackets, which originally supported Indal Airtraces (SON/HPS), but have now been replaced for Philips Luma Gen 2s (LED). This is on the A34 in Perry Barr.
Close up of a black column with quite an unusual twin bracket supporting Indal Airtrace lanterns. This street light would of been installed around 10 years ago in the early 2010s. This is at Edgbaston Village in Birmingham.

Black columns with unusual twin brackets supporting Indal Airtraces. Thankfully some of these street lights still survived after the tramway/metro extension work took place here. This is on Hagley Road at the Edgbaston Village just outside Birmingham city centre.
