The overhead is most likely used as back-up.

looks like that stuff is going for good, but it isn't old. Turns out the pole itself, only 15 years old, is being replaced- they had problems with these poles rotting.

not so old pole taken out (didn't last-rotted inside). Prepping for riser & switches to be put back in. These are hooked up to different circuits underground.
