What happens here

With the base in place, trenching is performed for underground utilities. The video shows a skid-steer loader equipped with a trencher attachment, digging narrow channels across the prepared sub-base. These trenches are crucial for installing irrigation lines, electrical conduits for lighting, and potentially drainage pipes. Once pipes and wires are laid, the trenches are backfilled and compacted to ensure a stable sub-grade.

Goal: Install underground utility lines for irrigation and lighting
