Underground Utility Construction in Kansas City, MO

MDT Underground provides underground utility construction, fiber optic construction, and utility installation services throughout the Kansas City metro, including conduit and duct bank installation, mainline fiber construction, fiber splicing and testing, FTTH deployment, and buried service wire drops. Crews working out of this office are familiar with the mix of soil conditions across the metro — from sandy river-bottom ground near the Kansas and Missouri Rivers to denser clay further inland — and adjust between directional boring, open-cut trenching, and vibratory plow installation depending on what a site calls for. Kansas City's older residential districts and newer suburban build-outs both come with their own permitting patterns, and this office maintains standing relationships with city Right-of-Way departments and the regional 811 system to keep locates and inspections moving on schedule rather than becoming the bottleneck on a project.
