Cannon Branch-Winters Branch
230 kV Line Extension
Project Overview
Cannon Branch-Winters Branch Line Extension
This project involves extending an existing 230 kV electric transmission line by building a new section of the line between the existing Cannon Branch Substation in the City of Manassas and Winters Branch Substation in Prince William County, Virginia.
The existing portions of this 230 kV electric transmission line are also being rebuilt under a related project. Please visit our Clifton-Winters Branch project page for additional information on this related project. Together, these projects will result in a full transmission line running from our Clifton Substation to our Winters Branch Substation in Prince William County, near Prince William Parkway.
