Vegetation management near overhead powerlines

30698_04

Vegetation will be cleared from near electrical lines in Wyndham across the next four months.

Wyndham council has contracted Citywide Service Solutions Pty Ltd to manage these activities.

As part of this program, Wyndham’s street trees and power-lines are inspected regularly to ensure no impact to power supplies due to nearby trees.

All vegetation maintenance work is required to be carried out in compliance with the Electrical Safety Act (Electric Line Clearance) 2020 Regulations.

These regulations stipulate a minimum safe clearance between trees and electricity lines, to keep re-growth clear of power lines.
