We need to burry these lines, then there wont be issues with wind storms or ice storms, ect taking out these lines.
Are you referring to phone/cable or power lines? Power is not as practical to bury as phone/cable. For higher voltage distribution and especially transmission it gets prohibitvely expensive quickly.
