oilmoney Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 My neighbors want to build an arch next year that spans across the street from my yard to theirs. I was thinking an arch or even just a rope/cable with something spelt out with rope light on mesh hanging from it. Have any of you done something similar? What kind of hurdles and red tape did you have to go through to accomplish something like this and what would you recommend the best way to build something like this?

sonoma Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 This sounds like the potential for a legal liability to me. Just my thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericm Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Several neighborhoods are here do that, looks like just a lot of pvc with some tie downs on both sides of the road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santas Helper Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I would suggest starting with the city codes for your area. Every area is different.Either way, you will probably be going thru the city council for approval.Being a temp thing it may not be as hard as some might think but I doubt it will be a breeze to get approval either. The design would depend on what you have to work with. Connecting to houses? Street light poles? Or starting from the ground up?Your going to need a design to present to the city. Good luck,Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Need more lights Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 It's also going to have to be high enough for emergency vehicles to pass underneath...I'd be more concerned with a garbage truck though....At the edges of the road, you would need to be at least 13' before you start the arch. It would have to be quite the project to accomplish. Good luck! if you get it done...WE NEED PICTURES!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmmienLightFan Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 drone them up and down the street.. I have never heard the word drone used like this before. A motif or arch across a road would be nice. Probably would be the biggest light arch ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
