The ones at the grade separation are lighting specific pole and light fixtures, and are or close to the ones in the link below.

Those aren't suitable for the existing poles which carry the power/communications infrastructure which have the existing "cobra head" lights. I agree they look nice and would be suitable for a downtown refurb or tech area, but not in a Region wide retrofit.
The Region prequalified manufacturers which had to provide simulations of their submitted fixtures in different scenarios (2 lane-1 sided lighting, 2-sided, multi-lane, intersections, etc.) to approve multiple vendors and keep the materials bid competitive. They then provided those pre qualified fixture lists as part of the supply/install tender.
