Utility Undergrounding Program

 

The utility undergrounding Program is responsible for coordinating any and all utility undergrounding projects in the County.  These utility undergrounding projects consist of the following work:

  • the removal of utility poles and placing of aerial utility lines below ground to improve Arlington’s appearance,
  • enhance pedestrian safety and 
  • improve potential economic development

Implementation of undergrounding projects is based on the Utility Underground Designated Areas adopted by the County Board.
