Civil communication projects and underground service location in Canberra
Commence Communications offer proven experience delivering civil communication services in Canberra.
Here are just two examples of projects we’ve undertaken:
Relocation of infrastructure on Cooyong Street between Genge Street and Scott’s Crossing in the Canberra City Centre
- This project involved supervision of the safe excavation near the existing conduits at Narellan Street and Cooyong Street. The project also involved supervising the installation of over
300 metres of new communication conduit, the removal of old conduits, installation of pits and lids, installation of over 5000 metres of high core count fibre and associated splicing. - Commence Communications are also providing the implementation of a horizontal bore to replace existing crushed conduits and the build of bespoke manholes. On completion,
an ‘as built’ drawing, haul and bore logs, Optical Time Domain Reflectometre (OTDR) test results and splice reports are supplied.
