Notice of a Preferred Route and Invitation to Community Open Houses

St. Clair Transmission Line

Hydro One has reached a milestone in the St. Clair Transmission Line project and we would like to invite you to join our community open houses to learn more, hear about next steps, speak with project team members and provide your feedback.

Since February 2022, Hydro One has been conducting a Class Environmental Assessment (EA) under Ontario’s Environmental Assessment Act to build a new double-circuit 230-kilovolt transmission line between Lambton Transformer Station in the County of Lambton and the Chatham Switching Station in the Municipality of Chatham-Kent. Through the Class EA process, five route alternatives were evaluated by collecting environmental and technical information, as well as input from Indigenous communities, community members, elected officials, interest groups and businesses.

Based on information gathered and feedback received, Route Alternative 2 has been selected as the preferred route for the new transmission line, as shown on the reverse map. This Project will also include the expansion of Lambton and Wallaceburg Transformer Station, and Chatham Switching Station, as well as an upgrade of the Wallaceburg TS from 115 kV to 230 kV.

This project is part of a network of electricity infrastructure projects that will support the regions’ economic growth. Once built, the St. Clair Transmission Line will support local food supply and security, economic development and job creation.
