Yeah, the method does not thrill me, but in some areas in Utah, like through 
national monuments etc, getting a permit to go in the shoulder could take 
decades.

Sure enough. But if it doesn't get USA attention, you may be doing a lot of 
repairs. Sounds like that's what Google discovered.

  I recently got a quote from a contractor for microtrenching.  $12/foot 
asphalt repair, duct and handholes included.  Cheaper than boring.

  From the article: The tech giant acknowledged problems in Louisville with a 
new method of digging shallower trenches to speed up the installation times of 
the fiber optic cable. Google says the problems were "disruptive to residents 
and caused service issues for our customers."


  Sounds like they tried microtrenching and then discovered its limitations, or 
how little city/construction crews worry about hitting fiber when it's at 
pretty much street level/directly in their work area.

    Yet another confirmation that it's not as easy as it looks.
