On the SW corner of Oak Ave Pkwy and E. Bidwell, in the cement island crosswalk, there are 2 orange boxes tied to the traffic light poles with about a 10 ft pole sticking up and what looks like a small microphone at the top. 

 

Any ideas what these are and what they are measuring?

I don't know what that is, but I thought I noticed something new attached to a streetlight right by the Starbucks at the corner of E. Bidwell St. and Glenn today, too.

The ones on Oak Ave and E. Bidwell are now gone! That was quick.

Big brother, lol
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
"Wow! What a Ride!"

I was thinking it was a wireless mesh thing-y for meter reading, but why would they take it down?

 

Maybe they weren't counting anything and it was just temporary for signal control until they could fix something???

Call Ernie Sheldon at the City of Folsom.     He could give you an answer.
