[QUOTE="damhy, post: 56217, member: 181680"] I was having a discussion with a friend earlier, who lives about 0.5mile away and we were saying how we should dig up the road and install a network, who cares if we take 10 years to install it, if companies can dig the road up so can we. Then I had the thought, what is to stop my running my own cables along the telewest pipes that they have under the ground for their cables??? As I see it they own their cables and their pipes, but I cant see how they can own the space exists in their pipes, especially as they are running in the street which is owned by the council. Hence if I dont damage their equipment, can I just run my own cables along side their network, saving me the cost of digging up the road. Just thought it is an interesting conversational topic.
