What is Utility Infrastructure?
Utility infrastructure is the backbone of any site or development. It includes the systems that provide electricity, water, and communications, the services that make buildings and facilities operational. Without safe and reliable utility connections, projects stall, operations are disrupted, and compliance risks increase.
For construction, industrial, and commercial sites, installing or upgrading utility networks is one of the most critical stages of any project. It requires careful planning, technical expertise, and compliance with industry regulations.
