Official description

We propose to install a new overhead line spur to provide an electricity connection to a new transmission substation site. This will consist of 17 new wood poles not exceeding 13 meters in height in keeping with existing OHL, no poles being removed. OHL is 1300 meters in length with copper conductor and steel cross arms. For information, the line will move to underground cable from the final pole to meet the new development.
