Slide 16: Transmission corridors
Transmission corridors The right-of-way for a 500 kV transmission line is 60 metres. While design work is still in early stages, we expect that the transmission towers will be: • 35 to 45 metres tall • approximately seven to nine metres square at the base Sample image for • between 275 to 335 metres
