It's manageable on low-density streets where its really only three waters and maybe some telephone lines.

Have you ever been to a german city? Underground power cables are the norm here, especially in densly populated areas. Usually only railroad power cables and high voltage long distance lines are above ground.

Yeah, we have lots of underground services here in NZ. It's when you start getting to low population densities that you start having trouble doing it.
