Well, they did different levels. The Louisville ones were nanotrenches at 
around 2" deep. Austin was maybe microtrenches at 4" and has stood the test of 
time better. Then again, frost and plow trucks aren't really a thing in Texas.

I heard Google's microtrenches were only a few inches deep. If they got it down 
to 10" then road resurfacing shouldn't be an issue. The same source told me 
Google didn't use the proper backfill. The story was that the flowable fill 
needs an epoxy additive when the microtrench is above the frost depth. 

I've never microtrenched anything myself, so this is all hearsay.

Don't microtrench if you can avoid it. Road resurfacing and cuts for other 
utilities makes this a hassle. Google abandoned their entire microtrenched 
plant in Louisville after the resurfacing projects, or aging infrastructure 
repairs caused so many outages.

Sorry, I know this question has been asked in the past many times but I need to 
ask It again: 

Whats the avg cost per mile of microtrench fiber in pavement? And in Soil?
