The reason flags have appeared in your yard is because Connexion crews are planning to do work. Engineers request to have utilities marked out so that they can design our new fiber-optic network around them. It’s critical to ensure any work done does not negatively impact light & power, water, stormwater or natural gas lines. This practice is often referred to as Subsurface Utility Engineering. If you happen to notice that these flags have shown up in your entire neighborhood, this is likely the case. Please keep in mind that the flags may be there a few weeks prior to work actually being done.
