Power Conduit Installation – ACT Power Authority

Overview

HDD allowed Borepoint to install underground power conduits in a dense ACT corridor with precision and zero surface disruption—meeting timelines and safety benchmarks without affecting traffic flow.
Borepoint was engaged by the ACT Power Authority to complete a complex power conduit installation in a busy urban corridor. Given the narrow workspace and high-traffic environment, our team employed Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) to avoid surface disruptions and maintain public safety. The project demanded a high level of accuracy to align with pre-existing underground infrastructure and to meet stringent compliance requirements. Our experienced team worked efficiently to deliver the conduit installation on time, with a focus on minimising community impact and upholding the authority’s operational standards.

Key Challenges:

Narrow worksite and the need to minimise disruption to traffic and pedestrian flow.

Solution:

Implementation of HDD to install underground power conduits with no open trenching.

Outcome:

Project completed efficiently, safely, and on schedule, meeting all compliance standards.
