Manhole Security - Protecting America's Critical Underground Infrastructure
Over the past five years, a series of terrorist attacks around the globe created new imperatives to protect civilian populations. High among these priorities is maintaining the integrity of a nation’s critical infrastructure. Most citizens take for granted the vast utility network that lies underground in nearly all major urban areas. Lying just a few feet beneath the pavement is a
complicated web of pipes, wires, cables, and other conduit that transport electricity, natural gas, telecommunications, potable water, waste, and steam. In addition to the utility networks, particularly in urban areas, much rail transportation and some road traffic is underground. The entirety of this network is accessible through one common avenue – manholes.
