Landowners whose properties will be affected by TransGrid’s HumeLink project have had the chance to bring their concerns directly to Minister for Energy and the Environment, Matt Kean. At my invitation, Mr Kean visited the electorate to meet with potentially affected landowners and to tour their properties to see the proposed route.

This is an important project for our state and we need to get the route right. That means we must respect the landowners affected. The Minister also met with representatives of Snowy Valleys Council and Wagga Wagga City Council to discuss TransGrid and other issues.
