Colorado Springs Utilities is mapping all of their water, electric, and natural gas infrastructure with GPS coordinates to help in maintenance and repair. Since some lines can be over 50 years old, the location (especially of buried lines) is important to know when digging is needed. This sign is an example of a new electric substation servicing an expanded municipal hospital.
