   I wouldn't be surprised if that was temporary to hasten the 5G roll-out.   
     Hopefully contractors will be rolling back through with permanent   
   supports.  If not, this publicity will probably be a kick in the seat   
   for them.   
      
   Either way, some people might be surprised how strong ratchet straps   
   are.  I once drove to Washington DC from eastern Ohio in a '65 Ford   
   Galaxie with the frame *held together* in the rear with a heavy-duty   
   ratchet strap.
