NGED are investing in a significant new underground electricity connection at Rotherwas between the two Welsh Water plants .The Greenway cycleway is by far the best route for these new cables.
The vast majority of the route is owned by Herefordshire Council and NGED are seeking the necessary permissions to install and then maintain the new cables.
There is a small portion of the route which is owned by a third party and leased by Herefordshire Council. NGED are seeking permissions with the land owner, but permission is also needed from Herefordshire Council as the tenant.
The new works will lead to some freeing up capacity at NGED’s Hereford South area which will be good news as the business community continues to grow at Rotherwas
