RodRadar’s groundbreaking excavation technology helping eliminate utility strikes
After making a VC investment in RodRadar, Haskell becomes the first U.S. contractor to take delivery of its Live Dig Radar excavating bucket.
Electric and telecom cables and pipes carrying gas, sewage, water or petrochemicals are forming an increasingly dense honeycomb beneath the built environment. Underground utility strikes during excavation activities are responsible for dozens of deaths, hundreds of injuries and an estimated $50 billion in damages yearly.
Preventing these strikes is a point of emphasis for Haskell’s Safety Department, which recently got an assist from Dysruptek, the company’s innovation and venture capital arm.
