It is interesting how the work is divided up. Ecs is a company from way back when that Verizon bought. They only are in manhattan, Bronx, queens (I think). The other two Boroughs verizon handles the conduits.
Everyone is pretty much able to run their own lines down city streets. They just have to pay the city to lease space. They also have to agree to move the utilities when asked. And pay other contractors to work around the tightness their utilities cause.
Ecs does this management and maintenance for verizon and for all the other companies like AT&T, cable vision, level3, federal govt, tmobile, etc. Of course the other companies may also run their own conduits depending on the economics.
