PROBLEM

Overhead Lines

  • Vulnerable to weather
  • Vehicle impact hazards
  • Visually cluttered
  • Inaccessible for repairs

Underground Tunnels

  • High cost of installation
  • Expensive maintenance
  • Difficult to access lines

The Gap

Cities are stuck choosing between fragile, ugly overhead poles or prohibitively expensive underground tunnels. There is no middle ground — until now.
