Questions for local telecom infrastructure nerds & smartypants

1) Whenever we have a big storm that topples trees, the power predictably goes out, but my fibre almost never does. Is the telecom network more resilient than the power grid? Obviously if the tree in front of my house takes down all the lines, I'm out of luck - but I wonder if the local (e.g. subdivision) telecom grid has some sort of failover capability?

2) Looking at [this picture](https://i.imgur.com/EmSqZat.jpg), can you tell which provider uses which set of lines? Assume one is EL and one is BA (abbreviated to avoid automod). In my case, just curious which set of lines is for my provider.

3) On my street there are some tree branches that sway in the wind and hit the telecom lines. If I call the company, will they cut the branches back, like NS Power does?
