[TCUG] Signal ducting

We are expecting an assault on our current installation standards because of
the difficulties contractors face threading a fully ducted system through
some of our congested city centre footways. We've worked hard to achieve the
current standards, which we feel reduce damage during the life of the
installation, and make it easier to repair when it does occur - so we don't
want to be forced to cut back.
Could I have some feedback about what other people do? Do some people still
only duct road crossings and coil cables in sand at the base of the pole?
Has anyone got any ingenious ways of getting ducts through congested
footways, and finding ways to plant the poles where they need to be - we're
quite proud of the "Sheffield spur" swept T arrangement (for details contact
Howard Saffer)? Anyone done a cost comparison and estimated the benefits a
fully ducted system provides?
Pete
