Getting Utility Lines Across Highways

Safely accomplishing this potentially hazardous service requires very detailed planning and timing. Lane Logix follows a precise set of steps, including coordinating with highway patrol and staging rolling roadblocks to allow your team to work efficiently and safely.

Lane Logix undertakes end-to-end planning, permitting, and law enforcement officer (LEO) procurement. We create a rolling highway roadblock two or three times a day. After each one, we reset; when a safe window appears, we do it again.

In the field, our employees:

  • Map out the area and set up signage
  • Wait for the supervisor’s green light
  • Coordinate officers and flaggers in trucks
  • Overtake the highway 2 miles out
  • Slow traffic to 15 mph or less
  • Indicate the last vehicle to get through
  • Add 3-1/2 to 5 minutes before opening traffic flow

Why LANE LOGIX Is the Logical Choice

When you need to get a distribution line across a highway, you should work with the experts — Lane Logix. We have built a solid industry reputation and have been recognized for our reliability by the area’s Department of Transportation (DOT).

Line crossings require precise coordination and planning. Once we receive the project specifications, all paperwork, permitting, and scheduling of police officers and equipment is completed. Customers can be confident that everything and everyone will arrive at the right place, at the right time, with nothing left to chance. 

When our project management team customizes a plan for you, you can be sure that all requirements will be met including 3 – 4 days advance notice, walk-through with an officer, notification of flagger contacts, and creation of a safety brief. Lane Logix never lets safety take a back seat to speed!
