Legacy Way underground power supply cable route revised

After consultation with Friends of ANZAC Park Toowong and others, Transcity have advised that the proposed route for the underground Legacy Way power supply cable has been revised to minimise impact on residents in Wool Street and on BCC heritage listed ANZAC Park. This first proposal was to run along Wool Street and across ANZAC Park near the Dog off-leash area.

While the cable will still need to be installed from the western worksite near the Botanic Gardens, across ANZAC Park, then along Wool Street to the Energex substation on the corner of Wool and Miskin Streets, the revised route moves the trenching works on Wool Street to the opposite side of the road from the residences. It also removes the need for any surface works through ANZAC Park, by boring deep under the park, and therefore any impacts to the future Avenue of Honour restoration.
