The proposal is for a 330 kV transmission line from Harvey to Kwinana, a distance of approximately 102 km. The first 51 km of the route parallels the existing Bunbury - Cannington 132 kV line from the Harvey Substation site almost to Pinjarra. There are a number of deviations to avoid major road intersections, dwellings and their environs and Pinjarra townsite. Following this , the route joins the existing Muja - Southern Terminal 330 kV line and follows it for most of the next 44 km. There is... Read more...
