At Dominion Energy, we are committed to reviewing and analyzing our energy infrastructure for the communities we serve. We are preparing to replace wires, a process known as reconductoring, on existing 230 kilovolt (kV) electric transmission lines in Loudoun County, Virginia. This project will improve electric reliability and resiliency for area residential and commercial customers. Reconductoring will increase the ampacity, or maximum current carried, on the lines. The lines are between our existing Buttermilk, Roundtable, Greenway, Enterprise, Shellhorn, Sojourner, and Cabin Run substations near the west side of Dulles International Airport.
No new right of way is needed, and existing structures will be used. Temporary traffic impacts are possible on Loudoun County Parkway, Old Ox Road, Shellhorn Road, and the Dulles Greenway.

In September 2023, temporary traffic impacts are possible where wires cross over Loudoun County Parkway. Pending approval by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), we plan to minimize delays by using a safety net over the road. For safety, shoulder and single lane closures may be required on Shellhorn Road.
