I remember when they reconstructed North Peoria and stuck these in along with huge setbacks and massive medians.  They had the chance to create a pleasant avenue and still move the same amount of traffic, but instead we ended up with what looked like a huge industrial corridor where there had at least been business (albeit run-down) before.

Why are they using jumbo-tron Poles?  Why not jumbo-tron Czechs or jumbo-tron Slavs?

Have you ever tried to cash as jumbo Czech? Too much of a hassel.

I tried that with a large one once.  He bounced due to no routing number on the Czech.
