Drive safely this holiday weekend, avoid utility poles

Submitted by sshockley on

As we head into the holiday weekend, we encourage drivers to be safe on the roadways. Today is the 244th day of 2023, and Cleveland Public Power has responded to more than 350 hit pole crashes. That is more than one a day on average.

Cars careening into utility poles is a problem in our city, and the resulting damage has far-reaching consequences.
