SP Manweb is proposing to build a new 132,000 Volt electrical circuit from Oswestry substation, located at the A5/A495 roundabout, to Wem substation, located on Ellesmere Road on the western side of Wem. The proposed development will provide much needed additional capacity to the local electricity network in North Shropshire.
Click on this newsletter Project Update Four to find out more, including dates a series of events throughout the proposed development area during the consultation where people can find out more information, see what the proposed development could look like and ask our team questions.
SP Manweb is consulting on the proposed development from 23 November 2017 to 2 February 2018 and all feedback must be received during this time. This is a statutory consultation as required by the Planning Act 2008. This is likely to be the last consultation on the whole proposed development prior to submission of the application for a Development Consent Order to the Secretary of State (via the Planning Inspectorate) and so we would encourage you to take part.

SP Manweb is the licensed electricity Distribution Network Operator (DNO) which owns and manages the electricity distribution network within Cheshire, Merseyside, North Shropshire and North Wales. It is the named applicant for this proposed development.
