The proposed underground transmission lines targeted for upgrades run from the Brighton substation at 350 Lincoln Street to the Electric Avenue substation at 40 Electric Avenue.
We are proposing replacement lines that would follow the same route as the existing lines, where feasible. We welcome and appreciate the opportunity to integrate feedback into the routing.
Once the new lines are installed, the existing HPFF transmission lines will be retired.
