My suggest is to come up with a totally different IP scheme, because you can 
run the two side by side and switch folks over at your leisure.  We have done a 
couple hundred bridged to routed conversions this way.  You can do this in a 
few stages with almost zero impact to the customers.  It also allows you to 
work in IP changes and switchovers as time allows. 

You can drop a /22 at each tower.  From there you have a couple of options as 
far as how to address.  Some folks do a block for 2.4 equipment, another for 
5.8 equipment, etc.  I like to do a totally routed block for each sector.  If 
you have publics you can then do a 1:many nat for each tower to help with any 
port issues, and to help identify customers when copyright complaints come in.  
At least you can narrow them down.

Hit me off list and I will baldy share more.
