  • Proposed Response to the North West Coast Connections Route Corridor Consultation – Appendix 1
    PROPOSED RESPONSE TO THE NORTH WEST COAST CONNECTIONS ROUTE CORRIDOR CONSULTATION – APPENDIX 1 PURPOSE OF APPENDIX The purpose of this Appendix is to set out the proposed response of SLDC to the National Grid North West Coast Connections Route Corridor Consultation 1 General comments 1.1 SLDC broadly supports the preferred option – Onshore South with Tunnel. 1.2 The preferred option includes a tunnel under Morecambe Bay from close to Heysham to the Rampside area and then broadly follows the existing 132kV Electricity North West power line northwards through the Furness peninsula to Broughton in Furness and then up the West Coast of Cumbria, much of which will be removed and replaced by a smaller number of larger 400kV pylons. 1.3 The preferred option, in the main, avoids the significant impacts to South Lakeland communities that would be incurred if other alternative options, such as Onshore South, were implemented. 1.4 However, SLDC’s support for the preferred option is subject to consideration of the remaining concerns and needs for mitigation detailed below. 2 Section H1 (South eastern Furness) 2.1 The preferred tunnel route is proposed to surface slightly inland in the area between Roosebeck and Rampside. SLDC considers that locating the convertor stations at the points where the cable surfaces as close to the existing energy infrastructure at Roosecote Power Station as possible (as indicated by the larger blue hatched polygon in the consultation material) would indeed be preferable. It would have the least impact on social, environmental and economic factors, including landscape, impacts on local communities and tourism.

The application for the DCO will therefore be determined by the Secretary of State, via the National Infrastructure Directorate (Planning Inspectorate).
