What we are doing

To provide power for HS2 control systems when operational, National Grid Electrical Distribution will build a new Primary Substation on land off Park Lane in Huddlesford. They will also install a new circuit feeder to connect to the new substation which will come from Lichfield Primary Substation located off Eastern Avenue.

The current proposed route for the cable circuits is within the carriageway on Eastern Avenue, Cappers Lane and Park Lane. There is a need to carry out ground investigation to confirm the cable route can be installed on the proposed route.

The initial ground investigation will be at the proposed substation location, which does not require any traffic management and will not impact road users. We expect this work to take around two weeks.
