Practical support for safe, coordinated highway excavation — utility coordination, Section 171 management and safety prints that keep works safe and on track.
Excavating on the highway means working around buried utility apparatus that isn't always where records suggest, in coordination with other parties who may have works planned nearby. Get either of those wrong and the result ranges from a costly delay to a genuine safety incident.
IMPACT supports the excavation stage of Streetworks projects with utility coordination to identify and manage clashes with other apparatus and works, Section 171 management for apparatus diversion and protection, and safety prints for streetworks projects that give site teams a clear picture of what's underground before they dig.
This service is designed to sit alongside our permitting and coordination support, so excavation planning is consistent with what's actually been submitted and agreed with the relevant authority.
