Very basic question but my background is not within services and after half an hour searching around online I can't find my answer!

My question is, can existing services be located within the capping layer of a new access?

Any info on this would be appreciated!

Services I E water, gas, leccie, b t etc can be placed in capping layer, if deep enough. All have a different depth. They should be laid in a straight line from house to connection.
