2014 Overhead works

5th August 2014

A special extra work day. While work was being undertaken at the front gate, our regular pole contractor ‘Smalls’ installed 3 new poles on the Sutherland line and one in the National Park. 20 years and the local termite population have taken their toll on some of our poles.

All the new poles are ‘CCA’ treated, which should hold the little insects at bay for some years and prolong the working life of these new poles. (Estimated to be around 50 years.)
