Utility Relocation FAQs

What is utility relocation?
Utility relocation is the process of moving or reconstructing existing underground utilities to accommodate roadway improvements, commercial development, infrastructure expansion, or other construction projects.
Bauer Underground can support the relocation of underground electrical systems, fiber optic and telecommunications infrastructure, conduit, and other underground utilities.
Utility relocation may be necessary when existing utilities conflict with new roads, buildings, foundations, drainage systems, transportation improvements, or other planned construction.
Our team can use utility locating, potholing, vacuum excavation, and hydro excavation to help verify the location and depth of existing underground utilities before relocation work begins.
Yes. Horizontal directional drilling can be used to relocate utilities beneath roads, developed areas, waterways, and other obstacles where open excavation may be disruptive or impractical.
Early planning, accurate utility locating, coordinated scheduling, and the use of appropriate installation methods can help reduce conflicts and keep construction moving. Bauer Underground works with project owners, contractors, and other project partners throughout the relocation process.
