Height of utility poles and fiber optic cables crossing the road

Home / Height of utility poles and fiber optic cables crossing the road

The minimum required height clearances for electrical lines over roadways subject to truck traffic are below: 5 feet for communication wires (cable TV, phone, fiber optic cables, etc. Deploying fiber above ground on poles or towers removes the need for underground digging and is particularly useful when the ground is uneven, rocky or both. (FOA) was founded in 1995 to help develop the workforce to build the fiber optic networks to support a rapid expansion in communications and the Internet. The following standard specifications are considered to be minimum design standards for wireline facilities crossing railroad tracks and right-of-way.
