Hydro One project nearing completion

Hydro One crews are continuing work on a multi-year infrastructure investment taking place along County Road 40 and 16.

Costing about $1.5 million, the two year project is expected to be complete this month, according to Tiziana Baccega Rosa, senior media relations advisor with Hydro One Networks Inc. 

“This work will improve reliability and increase local capacity,” she said.

Higher poles have been installed to accommodate a new line from the Morrisburg Transformer Station, which is located along Flagg Road in South Dundas.

For this project, composite poles are being installed, rather than wood, due to the significant woodpecker damage found while planning  the project.

South Dundas residents have experienced various power outages, some more localized than others to accommodate this project.
