Fiber Bores and Trenchless Project Support

A bore drawing is part of a larger technical and construction package. True North coordinates trenchless exhibits, investigations and owner submissions with the responsible designers and contractors.

For network owners, operators, contractors and property teams nationwide. Technical design, field work and operating decisions remain assigned to the qualified, authorized parties.

What the scope can include

Select the work and handoff your project needs. The agreement identifies the included deliverables and responsibilities.

  • Crossing exhibits and profiles

    Prepare route, profile, entry/exit and work-area exhibits from approved geometry and supported field information. Identify affected roads, utilities, rights and restoration limits.

  • Ground and method interfaces

    Coordinate geotechnical findings, utility exposures and specialist design for directional drilling, boring, microtunneling or other scoped methods. Do not infer feasibility from a plan line alone.

  • Work areas and contingency coordination

    Document access, pits, staging, traffic and contractor method inputs. Route drilling-fluid, dewatering, waste, failed-bore and deviation issues through the responsible technical, environmental and construction parties.

  • Crossing-owner and permit packages

    Align owner criteria, calculation requirements, technical exhibits and construction conditions. Record the accepted version and dependencies before affected work proceeds.

Prepare for the assignment

You can start with incomplete records. Tell us what is available and what still needs to be established.

  • Information to bring

    Geotechnical information, verified utilities, entry/exit limits and contractor method inputs. Provide the current versions and identify information that remains unverified.

  • The agreed handoff

    A coordinated trenchless drawing/submission package with investigation, technical and construction responsibilities defined.

Decisions, fees and timing

Scope and dependencies determine the proposal. No universal price or approval date is assumed.

  1. Confirm the basis and responsibility

    Review the available records, intended endpoint and authority to use the information. Assign missing inputs, technical decisions and the parties who can authorize changes.

  2. Coordinate and review the work

    Prepare the included documents from agreed inputs, resolve interfaces with responsible specialists and track revisions. Record external decisions and conditions separately from work prepared for review.

  3. Account for project-specific dependencies

    Ground conditions, bore geometry, crossing-owner reviews and field investigation. The proposal separates professional work, outside charges and review dependencies.

  4. Deliver the defined milestone

    Provide the controlling documents and remaining-action record. Identify what is accepted, what still requires a decision and what belongs to a separately contracted next stage.

Select and document the installation method

Route drawings must reflect the method selected by the responsible designers, crossing owner and construction team. True North coordinates the agreed documents; physical installation remains with qualified construction partners.

  • Horizontal directional drilling

    HDD, or horizontal directional drilling, follows a designed bore path between entry and exit locations. Obtain ground information, utility investigations, available setup areas and contractor equipment/method inputs. The package may need a plan/profile, work-area exhibits and specialist calculations, with drilling-fluid and deviation procedures assigned to the responsible parties. A route sketch alone cannot establish a buildable bore.

  • Microtrenching and jack-and-bore work

    Microtrenching places an approved pathway in a narrow surface cut; pavement ownership, depth, utility conflicts and restoration acceptance must be resolved. Jack and bore work uses a method-specific crossing arrangement with launch and receiving areas and casing information. These are different methods with different footprints. Document the selected section, ground constraints, access and owner conditions rather than applying an HDD exhibit to every installation.

  • Fiber blowing and conduit proofing

    Fiber blowing installs a suitable cable within a compatible duct using the installer’s approved method. Conduit proofing checks the pathway against the owner’s specified acceptance procedure before cable installation. Request duct size and continuity, cable data, access points and obstruction or test records. Reconcile installer findings, repairs and final occupancy records with the underground route drawings; neither a nominal duct size nor an old map proves a usable pathway.

Before you begin

Common questions

Is a bore exhibit the same as a designed drilling plan?

No. An exhibit describes the proposed work for review; engineered geometry, calculations and contractor execution requirements must be assigned and completed where applicable.

Who owns drilling means, methods and field safety?

The contractor and assigned specialists retain those responsibilities. Coordination records the approved interfaces and prerequisites; it does not transfer field safety or execution control.
