The shift towards trenchless methods is driven by several key benefits:

• Minimal Surface Disruption: Less damage to roads, pavements, and landscaping.

• Reduced Environmental Impact: Lower soil disturbance and less erosion risk.

• Faster Completion Times: The project can often be completed more quickly, especially for long-distance crossings.

• Lower Overall Costs (for large projects): While the initial equipment cost may be higher, trenchless methods save on labor, surface restoration, and traffic management expenses.

• Enhanced Safety: Reduces the risk of accidents associated with open trenches.
