Planning application
Land Adjacent To Moorlands Murton Lane Murton Tyne And Wear
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
In order to accommodate a new development, it is proposed to install a new steel pole in front of existing P94 towards P93, removing the need for a stay and then removing the existing pole that this will replace, as shown in red on the plan. The Department for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) guidance on these works states that minor works as above are planning exempt, but require notification to yourselves for your consideration of whether this is likely to have a significant adverse environmental impact.

Proposed to install a new totem pole (shown as two red dots connected by a red line on the attached plan) to fit a 200kVA 11kV three phase transformer to be installed on the pole with 315A LV fuses fitted. Due to the location of pole 94, an existing pole is to be relocated (the existing pole to be removed is shown as a blue dot on the plan). LV pole 94 is to be replaced with a steel pole (shown as a red dot on the plan) located in the soft dig area clear of the planned junction
