FOUNDRY STREET POLE LAID TO REST, RESURRECTED ON CURB

Weeks after going viral online, Wickham’s Foundry Street power pole has been replaced, Ausgrid workers removing it from the road on Monday.

Workers took several hours to replace it with a new one, which now stands on the curb – in front of a graffiti mural immortalising the embarassing mistake.

Minor roadworks are continuing in the area.
