Interactive map

We produced an interactive map to support our public consultation in spring 2022 to make it easier to identify where you are in relation to our proposals. This interactive map will be updated as we develop our proposals further.

View the interactive map of our proposals 

Using this interactive map, you can:

View our proposed graduated swathe detailing a new 400kV overhead line between the existing Norwich Main substation in Norfolk to the existing substation at Bramford, and from Bramford to the existing Tilbury substation in Essex.

View the graduated swathe detailing our proposals for a connection substation on the Tendring Peninsula. This is detailed in the 'Our proposals in Babergh, Tendring and Colchester' section of our project background document.

The key on the upper left-hand side of the interactive map provides you with the functionality to toggle between both our proposed new 400kV overhead line and the connection substation.

As our proposals relate to the reinforcement of the 400kV network in East Anglia, this map only illustrates the existing 400kV network along with related substations. A detailed map of the existing 275kV and 132kV network, particularly in and around London, can be viewed on page 25 of our project background document.
