“New Overhead Pylons through a region of AONB is no longer tolerated in England or Scotland so why is it acceptable in Wales, are we a lower class of UK citizen?
Our village of Rhosgoch has been disregarded by National Grid as a population of Human Beings, the proposed route runs through the southern part of the village at the highest point resulting in a visual impact in the southerly aspect of pylons and wires and very little
skyline! together with the sound produced by two sets of cables being carried into the village by the prevailing south westerlies producing an unacceptable living environment.
National grid were provided two alternative routes following the Holford Rules which would reduce the impact and at a "Lower Cost", but decided although agreeing they had good points to ignore them? Why perhaps because they had already purchased a house under the Proposed Route! Prior to the end of the consultation period!! how dishonest can an organisation be? what was the point of the consultation period?
The Grid states that Undergrounding would cost more, they could save money by re routing through Rhosgoch! The Grid staes that Extra costs would end up being past on to energy consumers in other regions! Basic Human Rights legislation states that you must not disadvantage a community for the Benefit of others! Exactly what National grid is doing! The line through Rhosgoch will destroy lives and make their homes a lot less valuable. Thank You Peter Murphy.
