Willoughby Substation 

Willoughby Substation, is located at the corner of Clarendon and Campbell Streets and supplies electricity to homes and businesses in the local area. To maintain a safe and reliable electricity supply,

Ausgrid will undertake staged replacement work over the next few years. This replacement is required due to the ageing of existing infrastructure and to ensure Ausgrid maintains a safe and reliable electricity network.

The project includes the construction of a new switch room building at the front of the site near Campbell Street, the installation and commissioning new electrical equipment, and the relocation of cables from the old switch room to the new facility.

Timeline

What to expect during construction

Residents will be kept informed of all scheduled works through notification letters providing details on upcoming activities. The notification will include details on the work that will take place, any temporary impacts, and the steps being taken to minimise disruption throughout the work.

The benefits

Replacement and installation of new infrastructure within the substation is required to safely provide energy to the community.

Next steps

A newsletter will be distributed to the community and displayed on the website later in the year.
