Seattle City Light pole, line replacement project starting in Gatewood, with ‘planned outages’ ahead
That map shows seven blocks in Gatewood where Seattle City Light is about to start work replacing poles and lines, according to this announcement we just received:
Seattle City Light will be upgrading overhead power lines in West Seattle soon. City Light crews will start work along SW Webster Street near 40th Ave SW today. This upgrade will strengthen the power lines and increase their capacity. In the future, this will improve reliability. Crews will install new utility poles. Once the poles are installed, crews will connect new overhead power lines. Please see the attached construction notification and project map.
Construction notifications are being mailed to City Light customers in the project area this week.
Planned power outages will be needed to complete this work safely. Once a planned power outage date is identified, City Light will notify affected residents at least five days before any planned outages.
Here’s the notice residents will be receiving.
