Photo showing power distribution crew is shown above erecting new double-arm aluminum light standards along the centre island at the Haisla-Kuldo intersection. The standards, some double, others single, all equipped with mercury vapor lamps will light Haisla from the intersection to the bridge, Commercial for its full length and Kuldo from Haisla to Columbia. Bases for the standards were installed in late November but the poles, which were made elsewhere, did not arrive in Kitimat until last week.
