We stumbled upon some work in the local river the other day. They were installing a conduit underneath the river bed and it was an amazing thing to watch. Basically, they blocked up the river, installed a couple culverts for the water to go through, then dug up the river in order to place the conduit in. The conduit is to hold cables that I assume will be used for data and information transfer. A sign of our age.
We went by the same location a couple days later and you can see how it looks after the work was done. Aside from some scarring on the river bank, you wouldn't know anything ever happened. I'm sure the river bank will be green again in no time.
