KC Streetcar

Challenge

The primary challenge involved navigating the dense network of underground utilities beneath the streetcar route. Avoiding existing lines was nearly impossible, and the complexity of the underground infrastructure required a meticulous approach from NG Companies crews to prevent disruption and work safely.

Solution

NG Companies crews used asphalt coring techniques to create several holes along the streetcar path, allowing them to locate the utilities precisely. In areas where mechanical excavators could not be safely utilized, crews performed full excavations using hydrovac technology.

Result

As a result of these efforts, potential delays were avoided and the Streetcar Project continued to move forward on schedule and without incident. The accurate utility locating and careful excavation work performed by NG Companies contributed to the project’s overall success.
