When we had services connected to the house, one of them (think it was
electricity) seemed to use some kind of pneumatic mole device which
burrowed
alond 5 or so meters under the ground and meant they did not have to break
the road. As I was busy at the time, I don't recall much more than
"wow
that's clever" - no idea how it was guided! So they are around - may
be
Yellow Pages? Bet it's not cheap though.

Richard
