You leave some infrastructure in place until it is necessary to remove it. The new / final pole placement might be somewhere where they are currently working. It's best to wait to move it until the new pole is installed or when all the work can be done at once.

I was at a site like this. The old pole and telcom were right in the middle of an eventual walkway. Totally looked out of place. Then about 2/3 of teh way through construction, utilities came out pulled the pole, then re connected using the new conduits that were in place to the MPOE.
