South Perth and Hurlingham underground power progress
The underground power project in the South Perth and Hurlingham areas is progressing well with completion scheduled for December.
Cabling is nearing completion, with most of the streetlights installed across the project area.
Underground power delivers a host of benefits such as improved reliability and security of power supply, enhanced streetscapes and visual amenity, improved property value, reduced street tree maintenance costs for local governments, improved LED streetlighting and ability to better support emerging technologies and future power demand.
This project is a Retrospective Undergrounding Project, a partnership between the City of South Perth and Western Power.
