Verizon will let a contractor install the SS duct...but their Union crews pull the fiber. At least that is how it goes down here around Oh-PA-WVA. Works great except in cold winter months- it's hell getting off reel, the duct has more spin on it. I would much rather use ADSS Fiber that fiber in duct. Works and looks better than the old method of using the orange Duct for aerial use.
