MNG was engaged to provide this support.</p>\n<p><strong>CHALLENGES</strong></p>\n<p>The 3ha site contains a multitude of subsurface services including communications, power, water, gas, drainage, and traffic signals. The MNG Locate team was tasked with safely and efficiently locating these assets, without causing major disruptions to public areas and busy road networks.</p>\n<p>Major roads border the site and experience extremely high-traffic flows throughout the day. Keeping traffic congestion to a minimum and maintaining road safety was critical throughout the project.</p>\n<p><strong>SOLUTIONS</strong></p>\n<p>To identify and efficiently locate the highly congested services throughout the site, MNG Locate liaised with relevant service providers to obtain information and access locked asset pits and cabinets to identify individual assets. This enabled MNG Locate to identify the precise locations of the conductive services (such as power and communications) with the use of Electromagnetic Induction tools.</p>\n<p>Once the traceable services had been eliminated from the scope, MNG Locate could identify the non-conductive services with the use of Ground Penetrating Radar equipment.</p>\n<p>Where possible, road works were conducted during night shift hours under traffic management, which reduced the amount of traffic disruption.</p>\n<p>To ensure the safety of pedestrians, hard barricading and warning signs were used.</p>\n<p>MNG Locate ensured regular communication with local businesses was maintained regarding scheduled works, to minimise adverse effects<br />\non trade.</p>\n<p><strong>OUTCOMES</strong></p>\n<p>The complete dataset captured the comprehensive service network and subsurface utilities and was presented to the client in a 3D format. The information enables ECU to accurately detect assets and avoid asset strike or damage throughout construction. It will also support design of future services and infrastructure.</p>\n<p>MNG Locate was able to complete the project discreetly with no permanent marks made to pathways or roads, which minimised any visual impact to the site. The heavily congested underground services were located safely and efficiently, in an unobtrusive manner, and in compliance with AS5488 standards.</p>\n<p><a href=\"/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/MNG070-A4-CaseStudy-ECU-MNG-Locate-HR.pdf\">DOWNLOAD PDF</a></p>\n<p>&nbsp;</p>\n","excerpt":"<p>Perth, WA</p>\n","project_category":[39],"wordpress_id":455,"date":"August 3rd 2019","featured_media":{"localFile":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"aspectRatio":1.5027322404371584,"src":"/static/6e56196839c896178e1cb458b099f831/8acec/WEB-MNG-Site-50.jpg","srcSet":"/static/6e56196839c896178e1cb458b099f831/44b60/WEB-MNG-Site-50.jpg 275w,\n/static/6e56196839c896178e1cb458b099f831/95a41/WEB-MNG-Site-50.jpg 550w,\n/static/6e56196839c896178e1cb458b099f831/8acec/WEB-MNG-Site-50.jpg 1100w,\n/static/6e56196839c896178e1cb458b099f831/fdabd/WEB-MNG-Site-50.jpg 1650w,\n/static/6e56196839c896178e1cb458b099f831/b1e91/WEB-MNG-Site-50.jpg 1920w","sizes":"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px"}}}},"acf":{"video":{"source_url":""},"projectGallery":[{"image":{"localFile":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"aspectRatio":1.8581081081081081,"src":"/static/09fb9913d14b92708ee379c46b71b260/8acec/20210525_134948.jpg","srcSet":"/static/09fb9913d14b92708ee379c46b71b260/44b60/20210525_134948.jpg 275w,\n/static/09fb9913d14b92708ee379c46b71b260/95a41/20210525_134948.jpg 550w,\n/static/09fb9913d14b92708ee379c46b71b260/8acec/20210525_134948.jpg 1100w,\n/static/09fb9913d14b92708ee379c46b71b260/fdabd/20210525_134948.jpg 1650w,\n/static/09fb9913d14b92708ee379c46b71b260/e5ceb/20210525_134948.jpg 2200w,\n/static/09fb9913d14b92708ee379c46b71b260/9d220/20210525_134948.jpg 2545w","sizes":"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px"}}}}},{"image":{"localFile":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"aspectRatio":0.7947976878612717,"src":"/static/d24dfcfb4145635c273c2f329e1d0b25/8acec/MNG-Locate.jpg","srcSet":"/static/d24dfcfb4145635c273c2f329e1d0b25/44b60/MNG-Locate.jpg 275w,\n/static/d24dfcfb4145635c273c2f329e1d0b25/95a41/MNG-Locate.jpg 550w,\n/static/d24dfcfb4145635c273c2f329e1d0b25/8acec/MNG-Locate.jpg 1100w,\n/static/d24dfcfb4145635c273c2f329e1d0b25/fdabd/MNG-Locate.jpg 1650w,\n/static/d24dfcfb4145635c273c2f329e1d0b25/e5ceb/MNG-Locate.jpg 2200w,\n/static/d24dfcfb4145635c273c2f329e1d0b25/41dcf/MNG-Locate.jpg 2313w","sizes":"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px"}}}}},{"image":{"localFile":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"aspectRatio":1.5027322404371584,"src":"/static/23566bc98c36ea6001c5dba51a818f3d/8acec/PRINT-MNG-Site41.jpg","srcSet":"/static/23566bc98c36ea6001c5dba51a818f3d/44b60/PRINT-MNG-Site41.jpg 275w,\n/static/23566bc98c36ea6001c5dba51a818f3d/95a41/PRINT-MNG-Site41.jpg 550w,\n/static/23566bc98c36ea6001c5dba51a818f3d/8acec/PRINT-MNG-Site41.jpg 1100w,\n/static/23566bc98c36ea6001c5dba51a818f3d/fdabd/PRINT-MNG-Site41.jpg 1650w,\n/static/23566bc98c36ea6001c5dba51a818f3d/e5ceb/PRINT-MNG-Site41.jpg 2200w,\n/static/23566bc98c36ea6001c5dba51a818f3d/a92d7/PRINT-MNG-Site41.jpg 5000w","sizes":"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px"}}}}},{"image":{"localFile":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"aspectRatio":1.5027322404371584,"src":"/static/e6eb06aaf8a4f804ff8ea803da86b7b1/8acec/PRINT-MNG-Site44.jpg","srcSet":"/static/e6eb06aaf8a4f804ff8ea803da86b7b1/44b60/PRINT-MNG-Site44.jpg 275w,\n/static/e6eb06aaf8a4f804ff8ea803da86b7b1/95a41/PRINT-MNG-Site44.jpg 550w,\n/static/e6eb06aaf8a4f804ff8ea803da86b7b1/8acec/PRINT-MNG-Site44.jpg 1100w,\n/static/e6eb06aaf8a4f804ff8ea803da86b7b1/fdabd/PRINT-MNG-Site44.jpg 1650w,\n/static/e6eb06aaf8a4f804ff8ea803da86b7b1/e5ceb/PRINT-MNG-Site44.jpg 2200w,\n/static/e6eb06aaf8a4f804ff8ea803da86b7b1/a92d7/PRINT-MNG-Site44.jpg 5000w","sizes":"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px"}}}}},{"image":{"localFile":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"aspectRatio":1.5027322404371584,"src":"/static/7fdb6590ddb4866f309b2a4b391c3aa8/8acec/PRINT-MNG-Site51.jpg","srcSet":"/static/7fdb6590ddb4866f309b2a4b391c3aa8/44b60/PRINT-MNG-Site51.jpg 275w,\n/static/7fdb6590ddb4866f309b2a4b391c3aa8/95a41/PRINT-MNG-Site51.jpg 550w,\n/static/7fdb6590ddb4866f309b2a4b391c3aa8/8acec/PRINT-MNG-Site51.jpg 1100w,\n/static/7fdb6590ddb4866f309b2a4b391c3aa8/fdabd/PRINT-MNG-Site51.jpg 1650w,\n/static/7fdb6590ddb4866f309b2a4b391c3aa8/e5ceb/PRINT-MNG-Site51.jpg 2200w,\n/static/7fdb6590ddb4866f309b2a4b391c3aa8/a92d7/PRINT-MNG-Site51.jpg 5000w","sizes":"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px"}}}}}],"relatedProjects":{"title":"","postfilter":[{"wordpress_id":1353},{"wordpress_id":445},{"wordpress_id":2629},{"wordpress_id":1348},{"wordpress_id":455},{"wordpress_id":1351},{"wordpress_id":1888},{"wordpress_id":456}]}},"yoast":{"metaTitle":"","metaDescription":"","opengraph_image":{"source_url":""},"twitter_image":{"source_url":""}}}},"pageContext":{"id":"1c0baafc-de87-5e0a-ac3a-7b45f43c84d5","noindex":false}},"staticQueryHashes":["10093991","2346396719","2724885624","3041280590","3138431152","3820327877","3820327877"]}
