I doubt that - since they *have* published the info already in an effort 
to avoid the fun problems you get when combining a JCB and water 
main/power line/gas main/all of the above.

There's a whole bunch of shapefiles available, but the licensing isn't 
particularly helpful. Asking the right people may get us permission to 
use it.
