HumeLink | Transgrid

I was disappointed the State Government approved the overhead HumeLink project, against the wishes of communities directly affected. 

The directive to produce the cheapest possible transmission system means that those in its path will be the ones paying the highest price. 

I will be closely monitoring the construction of HumeLink to ensure they comply with all the conditions of consent.

I continue to welcome feedback on the construction impacts, - this includes through the Batlow United Community Chamber (BUCC) that meets quarterly in Batlow.

Please continue to share with me any concerns you may have regarding the HumeLink project.

Since 2020, I have endeavoured to bring the concerns of affected landowners to the government.

I would like to thank the active community members who have, and continue, to raise their concerns with me.

HumeLink Landowners’ survey

The HumeLink Landowners' survey was an online survey open for four weeks, from 5 August to 2 September 2021. The survey’s aim was to collect feedback from property owners and locals potentially affected by the proposed HumeLink on their experience of TransGrid’s consultation process.

A total of 110 responses were received, although not all questions were answered.

A summary of the survey results can be viewed below.
