But mostly buried utilities though, I would think — if you imagine using the catenary poles to support the streetlights, and bury the power cables, then the only visible difference between PRIMOVE and catenary is the actual catenary wires and the arms supporting them from the poles that would need to be there anyway, so the actual impact of the catenary wires would be pretty small.

Are the lights going to be mounted on the cat poles on Charles (from Benton to Ottawa)?  I recall the light posts on the boulevards/sidewalks looked permanent, but of course I may be mistaken.
