Selection of Route for MV Line

 Selection of Route

Ideally, the line route should be as short and straight as possible in order to minimize costs, minimize stays and have a tidy appearance. However, some other factors that need to be taken into account are:

a) Land issues, ease of acquisition, rights over private lands etc.;

b) Ease of obtaining necessary approvals;

c) Stakeholder considerations and acceptance;

d) Vegetation clearing, environmental and visual impact, EMF impact;

e) Access for construction, maintenance and operations;

f) Ease of servicing all lots for Low Voltage Lines;

g) Compatibility with future development;

h) Waterways, parks and natural habitat; and

i) Terrain suitability and ground conditions (excavation, pole foundation etc.)
