... Not London - but why would a pelican crossing suddenly acquire a aerial on the top? A planning notice will probably be stuck to a nearby lamppost or equipment cabinet. Read it and you will find the name of the utility responsible, from which the purpose can be deduced. -- John Rowland - Spamtrapped Transport Plans for the London Area, updated 2001 http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Acro...69/tpftla.html A man's vehicle is a symbol of his manhood. That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line - It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes |

Not London - but why would a pelican crossing suddenly acquire a aerial
on the top? Was it crossing as part of its annual migration, and the aerial was tracking it? Or was it a pelicon? The original acronym might have been pelicon but pelican is the accepted spelling these days. As in "The Zebra, Pelican and Puffin Pedestrian Crossings Regulations and General Directions 1997" for example. |

Maybe an aerial for a cellular micro cell, sometimes hidden in petrol
station price signs. 3G use 'dummy glass fibre phone poles' complete with iron steps a la BT ones. David "John" john.plant90@NO-SPAMntlworldDOTcom wrote in message ...

Only 18inches long. Appearing on more. Location Derby. Not seen on a
junction yet - only pelicans and a bridge with one way working. -- Regards John "D Smith" wrote in message ...
