Ok, so ADSS is in between on price. Much cheaper than figure-8, but
similar labor savings.
I was wondering about drop cables though. If I have to cross a couple
of poles to get from a closure to the customer premises, I would have no
problem lashing the drop cable to a figure-8, but could I lash a few
drop cables onto an ADSS without an issue?

Might want to compare figure 8 costs to ADSS as well, the share some
of the same strengths and weaknesses. Lashed has the advantage of
being able to overlash and do mid-span aerial drops.

Seems like you have at least twice the labor in lashed because you
pull the whole length twice. I don't really have a basis for
comparison though. Does anybody have reasonable guesses about
labor hours spent for aerial installation on the two different
methods?
