[AusNOG] Direct Bury Fibre - Installer Recommendations

[Luke Thompson]

G'day,

I'm not sure if they'd do a smaller/single job in QLD, though Global 
Utility Construction gets a good wrap. Aussie Broadband have been using 
them for at least 1 state of their national fibre roll-out.

Having worked through some challenging sites/services over the years, 
especially in our past life in the MSP space, maintenance-wise you'd be 
likely to thank yourself for going with a piped service.

With 3km of earth opened up, ease-of-repair down the track is the main 
thing I'd be considering.

Very different circumstances, though with 3km to trench it's still worth 
thinking about:

Some other providers that are local to QLD, which (at a glance) seem decent:

Good luck with it all!
