Mapping new utilities at installation is a critical step toward reducing utility strikes. But what about the millions of KMs of utilities already underground? Even perfect records can't guarantee safe excavation.

Operators need real-time visibility beneath the bucket, because maps show where utilities should be-Live Dig Radar® shows where they actually are. Read the article and join the conversation on the future of utility damage prevention. newcivilengineer.com/latest/…

The IIJA is accelerating infrastructure development across the U.S. but it's also increasing underground utility congestion. As more utilities are installed below ground, the risk of strikes, downtime delays and safety incidents continues to grow.

Even rain couldn't stop curiosity. We recently joined our partner @anzenkun_nishio , one of the biggest rental companies in Japan, for training and a Live Dig Radar® demo. The engagement from over 20 leading contractors said everything about the opportunity ahead. #ZeroStrikes

Here is another contractor that is not familiar with LDR®. A gas line was struck in a neighborhood in Mecklenburg County, NC last week. The @wcnc reporter said that #NorthCarolina alone recorded 500 utility strikes in 1 quarter - a growing problem the industry still struggles.

These incidents are not just costly. They disrupt communities, endanger crews, and put civilians at risk. And the frustrating part? Many of them are preventable. If this excavation contractor had used LDR) tech, this strike could have been avoided.

Operators deserve real-time underground situational awareness directly from the cab before the bucket hits a buried utility. There is a solution to utility strikes. It’s Live Dig Radar®. Spread the word. It’s time to move the industry toward #zerostrikes. msn.com/en-us/autos/news/how…

Article published on @constructca, discusses how integrating GPR into construction equipment is enhancing excavation safety and operational efficiency. Read how it's done by embedding, real-time utility detection tech, like the 𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐠 𝐑𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐫® rodradar.com/news/integratin…

Congratulations to CGT S.p.A. and Alayan for winning the Innovation Award at @samoterverona 2026 for the Live Dig Radar® solution. Safer, smarter excavation starts with real-time underground awareness directly from the bucket helping prevent utility strikes and reduce costs.

Most utility asset management systems still rely on the risky assumption that what’s in the records reflects on what’s underground. In reality, there is a gap between documentation and field conditions causing project delays, and costly utility strikes. shorturl.at/HMhCV

Still dealing with utility strikes? That’s not a site problem. It’s a mindset issue. A utility is struck every minute. “Good enough” methods aren’t good enough. And the biggest project delays? are not caused by new tech, they’re caused by the strike you didn’t see coming.

Calling all #Fiber deployment companies and subcontractors. You’re building the infrastructure that keeps the world connected. But when #undergroundutilities are struck, the impact is the opposite: service disruptions, safety risks, and reputational damage.

Recent cases show how quickly projects can be stopped when things go wrong. Fiber rollout is accelerating. Underground complexity isn’t getting any simpler. Following pre-dig procedures is the first step, but even then, relying on maps, markings, assumptions is no longer enough.

Real-time visibility during excavation is what separates smooth projects from costly shutdowns. With LDR Excavate™, crews can detect underground utilities as they dig, avoiding strikes, delays, and risk. Have a project? We’ll connect you with a local partner to purchase or rent.

Great engagement this week for RodRadar in the US. Our team, together with our dealer VLP Equipment Share, conducted a live demo and presentation for a large group of contractors from Kansas City, in collaboration with @NUCA_KC.

Experience still matters in excavation. But relying on it alone is no longer enough. As underground environments become more complex and less predictable, the shift is clear: from judgment and assumptions to real-time data and automation.

Technologies like LDR® providing real-time detection and avoidance of buried utilities during excavation can bridge the gap between experience and a safer more precise future. rodradar.com/from-experience…

Great to join Boyd CAT’s Annual Boot Camp in Kentucky - a hands-on training showcasing the latest solutions shaping the construction industry. We presented the LDR® tech, enabling real-time detection of underground utilities to help prevent costly and dangerous strikes.
