new transmission line

Open houses this week for AltaLink project

Jul 13, 2019 | 2:06 PM

Two open houses are coming up to allow people to learn more about AltaLink’s Central East Transfer-Out Project.

AltaLink’s proposed project affects residents in the counties of Red Deer, Lacombe and and Stettler.

If approved, the project would see 55-60 kilometres of new 240 kilovolt transmission line connecting the Gaetz Substation, located east of Red Deer, to a new ATCO electric transmission line southeast of Alix.

The company is proposing two options, which you can learn about on their website.

The open houses are happening on the following dates:
