Upcoming field works
Upcoming field works include field surveys and investigations in public areas. These works enable us to refine the project design and plans for construction, pending project approvals.
We have several field surveys and investigations planned within public spaces including road reserves and we occasionally conduct aerial surveys. All surveys are undertaken in accordance with road traffic management and airspace requirements.
Similar surveys may also be conducted on private property as per the land access processes detailed in our Landholder Guide: Land access for field surveys and investigations. Landholders are contacted directly and private property surveys are not included in the table below.
We notify landholders, where we have their contact details, if we plan to undertake ground-based surveys on the roadside or public land near their property or undertake an aerial survey over their property.
If you wish to receive direct emails or text messages about planned project works in your immediate area, please contact our project team at info@westernrenewableslink.com.au.

AusNet helicopter transmission repairs
AusNet Services will be conducting repairs on existing transmission lines.
This work will take approximately 5 minutes at each repair location with the helicopter hovering over the line while the repairs are completed from the helicopter.
The repairs are not part of the Western Renewables Link project; however, we’re informing relevant landholders along the project’s proposed route.
