 Surely if an easement can be obtained from the landowners the poles could be moved away from the road with minimal cost compared to burying them. I don't think anything can be built within 50m of this road anyway? This way the trees would hide the ugly power lines from motorists view. I drive along this stretch of road nearly every day and it is very popular and relatively safe place for people to stop and collect chestnuts which adds to the local charm.
