A light pole on Windsor's Erie Street East is being fixed after a photo of its crumbling base brought it some notoriety on the internet.

A new light pole is going up on Erie Street, replacing one that caught attention online for being in such rough shape.

There might be a light at the end of the tunnel for some of the oldest street lights in the city that are being replaced with newer models.

After almost three years of reporting that a street light pole had fallen during strong winds in 2022, a resident is happy that it has been repaired and they now have light.
