Pylons in North Somerset

[scrambled]

Are many of you aware of the proposed plans to put 37 miles of 400,000 volt powerlines through North Somerset? We have set up an action group in our village, Yatton, and have a facebook group Rally Against Pylons. Please join us and help stop this monstrosity.

I am aware of it, the one thing I wasn't clear on was why? Is it to replace existing supplies or to meet demand?

HInkley C is being turned into a nuclear power station, and so will need to transport more power - through ouir counrtyside! And it is sosay to meet furure existing demand. We don;t see why it can't go underground or undersea - I don't want me or my children to be exposed to risk of leukemia or cancer, let alone the environmental damage and spoilt views.
