The existing roadway, structures/footings and utilities in close proximity to the excavation needed protection. The roadway was still in use during construction operations. EBS provided a design-build shoring system which utilized vertical micropiles as soldier piles to allow construction personnel to enter a 3.5 metre deep excavation safely
