The key purpose of this project is to replace old infrastructure and rebuild to current reliability standards.
The line is at the end of its service life and needs to be replaced to maintain reliability for our customers.
Two 115 kilovolt (kV) transmission lines were built in the 1920s with a combination of steel lattice structures and wooden H-frames in the 9.2-mile right of way corridor that runs through Rockbridge, Amherst, and Bedford counties. Both electric transmission circuits begin at our Balcony Falls Substation in Rockbridge County. They primarily share the same structures until they reach Cushaw Substation at the hydroelectric generation facility in Amherst County. From there, one circuit continues to Skimmer Substation in Bedford County.
The existing wooden H-frame and steel lattice structures will be replaced with a combination of brown, weathering steel H-frame and steel pole structures.
