“It appears that National Grid are using the presence of the existing line of Pylons to justify a second row. Pylons are a poor legacy for future generations. This structure will still be standing in 70 to 100 years. We need transmission of power to recognise 21st Century and the longer term. The Technology is available to underground and or undersea these cables.
Pylons will be detrimental to views of unspoilt countryside, particularly from within, and views of surrounding areas of natural beauty & national Park. We are living in an era where we are regretting previous decisions ie use of plastics, polluting fuels, ozone deterioration. We shouldn't make the same mistake with opportunity we have now to get it right by undergrounding these cables.Whilst the initial cost clearly would be at a premium, the long term costs in terms of environment, health etc should be recognised. The additional cost spread over all the millions of customers is minute.
Pylons will have a severe and significant effect on Angleseys tourism industry, visitors do not want to see spoilt and industrialised countryside. Tourism and the knock on effects to local businesses provide much needed employment both directly and indirectly, these would be seriously affected. Angleseys tourism relies strongly on its landscape identity which encourages visitors who admire uninterrupted views of the adjacent National Park, Wales's highest Mountain Snowdon itself along with many areas of outstanding natural beauty.
There is a huge amount of scientific research into the health effects of overhead high voltage cables. There are clearly concerns for both humans and animals that are in close proximity to these structures.
Other proven technology exists like underground and undersea which do not have the negative affect of pylons and overground cables.
The consultation process has bee flawed, ineffective and not carried out in good faith. The statutory consultation at its outset did not consider wider options for consideration.
National Grid are already providing substantial funding to replace existing overhead lines with underground cables in England It appears that Anglesey will be the poor neighbour and treated differently.”
