Please don't build 50 metre tall, high voltage pylons across Dumfries & Galloway.
Why is this important?
- The proposed pylons will be massively visually intrusive in what is one of the few beautiful, unspoiled parts of the UK left.
- They will harm the environment and local wildlife.
- They will be hugely damaging to the tourist sector in Dumfries and Galloway, a key driver of the local economy.
- The pylon line will seriously affect house values and the ability to sell houses for miles around due to its size and visual impact.
- Other alternatives, such as putting the line underground or under the sea, are available and could be adopted.
