How responsible trenching reduces disruption

Protect existing services, public access and reinstatement quality during civil works.

01

Know what is already in the ground

Available utility records, surface evidence, detection equipment and controlled excavation help reduce the risk of damaging existing services.

02

Manage the work area

The site plan should address pedestrians, traffic, property access, spoil, dust, noise, weather and daily housekeeping.

03

Reinstatement is part of the build

Surfaces must be restored to the agreed standard and defects closed promptly. Good records establish what was opened, installed, inspected and reinstated.

Every route, organisation and regulatory environment is different. Share the location and project objective with African Dream for a more specific discussion.
