National Grid is set to refurbish the 40km transmission route between Mannington substation in East Dorset and Nursling substation in Southampton from June to November. The project will involve reconductoring 115 pylons with new wires and refurbishing the steel structures. Senior project manager Stephen Fedzin highlighted the goal of maintaining safe and reliable power transmission. This initiative is part of a nationwide effort to enhance infrastructure resilience and meet growing electricity demands. Balfour Beatty will carry out the work, aiming to avoid any disruption to electricity supplies during the refurbishment process.
