Pole Escorts

As the map illustrates the height required for a pole car can vary depending on the state. Most of the variations are on the eastern states and more so in the New England area. A state’s pole car requirements can also depend on routing in a given state:

Highways
Non-designated highways
City and County rules

are some other factors to keep in mind when working with pole escorts. As the overall height increases additional escorts and route surveys can also be required.
