🚨 A damaged gas main. Nearly 5000 people evacuated. A 200-metre safety cordon. 🚧

That's what happened in the City of London after a gas pipe was reportedly struck during construction works.

The incident led to road closures, disruption to businesses and a major emergency response, with thousands of people evacuated from nearby buildings while engineers worked to make the area safe.

Stories like this are a powerful reminder that utility strikes don't just affect a worksite. They can impact entire communities, disrupt essential services and put people at risk.

🚜 A 91.5% increase wasn't in construction. It was ditch clearance.

Agricultural searches continue to play an important role in protecting underground infrastructure, with ditch clearance searches increasing by 91.5% according to Digging Up Britain 2026.

Whether it's fencing, gate installation or land drainage work, even routine agricultural activity can put buried assets at risk.

Every avoided strike means:
✅ Improved safety
✅ Reduced disruption
✅ Lower repair costs

Safe digging is everyone's responsibility, regardless of sector.

⚡ The EV boom is changing digging behaviour.

One of the biggest surprises from this year's Digging Up Britain report was the growth in consumer searches.

In 2025, Domestic searches increased by 77.9%, while searches relating to installing services surged by an incredible 397%.

Why?

As more homeowners install EV chargers, many are carrying out groundwork around driveways, garages and properties.

A new generation of people are discovering something industry professionals have always known...

✅ Before you dig, you need to know what's below.

The safe digging message is reaching far beyond traditional utility and construction sectors. And that's good news for everyone.
