Big news, Network Plus one of UK's leading national utility and infrastructure contractors, is rolling out RodRadar Live Dig Radar® (LDR) across its national fleet, one of the largest utility safety deployments in the UK.
The multi-year, fleet-wide program covers 200+ excavators and makes Network Plus the first contractor to deploy RodRadar's new Type 0 LDR Excavate™, the world's first 30cm (12") GPR-embedded digging bucket, purpose-built for tight urban dig sites.
Why it matters: the UK sees 60,000+ utility strikes a year, costing the economy an estimated £2.4B annually. This partnership is a major step toward "Zero Strikes" as the industry standard.
