Available only to full-paying delegates, the Trenchless Super Panels are one of the most popular features of the ASTT’s annual events.

This year Mr Cook will be joining a comprehensive Super Panel made up of experts in all areas of Trenchless Technology as they field audience questions in a lively and engaging forum, taking place 10.30–11.30 am on Tuesday 24 October.

Mr Cook started his career in tunnelling in 1971, working for a contractor responsible for constructing hundreds of kilometres of tunnel and replacing Victorian-era sewer networks in many of the United Kingdom’s major cities and towns.

In 1982 Mr Cook worked with his first full-face tunnel boring machine (TBM), and since that time he has been involved with all the various forms of mechanical tunnelling.
