Underground Utility Survey using GPR and Radio-detection techniques to survey 21 bike stand locations.
Project Scope
Dublinbikes is a public bicycle rental scheme which has operated in the city of Dublin since 2009. At its launch, the scheme used unisex bicycles with 40 stations. Today there are over 100 stations with plans for further expansion.
Apex Surveys were commissioned by Dublin City Council to carry out underground utility surveys for a further 21 bike stand locations.
