The following photographs were taken on Sunday, 12th December 2010.

The two 'One Way' signs at the Peet Street junction had already been replaced by the time that these photographs were taken, although reinstatement at footway level was still to occur.

The first outgoing column had also been replaced.

The rest of the old columns still remained at this time, however - this column supported both a Thorn Beta 5 lantern and Signature 'Exlite Signlite' unit.

A hairline crack was visible in the Beta 5's bowl.

Given that the 'Exlite Signlite' was not operating, the column had probably been disconnected, and was awaiting removal.

A GEC Z9532 was fitted to the next column; this is how the already-removed column would have looked when installed.

A length of wire had been used to secure the Z9532's bowl.

A rather hefty cable joint connected the nearby new column to the underground electricity supply.
