The markings in the image are utility location markings, commonly used to indicate underground infrastructure before construction or excavation. The orange color suggests it is related to telecommunications, such as fiber optics, cable TV, or phone lines.
Breakdown of the Markings:
Orange paint: Indicates communication-related utilities.
"O" or "Ø": This could signify a pipe diameter or a specific utility marker.
"31° 04'3 RY": This might be a reference point, coordinates, or a routing instruction.
"1456.27": Possibly an elevation, depth, or a unique identifier.
"SVC-WWA": "SVC" likely stands for "Service," and "WWA" might be an abbreviation for a company or specific infrastructure type.
What It Likely Means:
While it’s not water-related (which is usually marked in blue), it could be a utility marking indicating the presence of fiber optics or other telecommunications infrastructure. These markings help prevent accidental damage during construction.
If you want to verify, you can contact your local 811 utility location service to confirm what infrastructure is being marked in your area.
Google fiber has been running around here
That makes sense! Given the orange markings and the fact that Google Fiber has been installing infrastructure in your area, these are almost certainly utility markings for fiber optic lines.
The "SVC-WWA" could mean something like "Service - Wideband Wireless Access" or another internal designation related to fiber services.
The coordinates/numbers might refer to specific locations, depths, or routing information for fiber cable placement.
If you're seeing these markings around your neighborhood, it's likely Google Fiber (or a contractor working for them) is mapping out where to lay underground fiber-optic cables. You might see trenching or directional boring happening soon.
