Energization Of Overhead Wires On The Valley Line Southeast LRT
May 5, 2021 – The overhead wires for the Valley Line Southeast LRT along 66 Street, between 41 Avenue and 28 Avenue, are energized. The overhead, energized wires provide power to the trains.
As construction progresses, the overhead wires will gradually be energized in each area of the 13-kilometre alignment beginning in Mill Woods and ending in Downtown.
For your safety, overhead wires should always be considered energized when strung from power pole to power pole. The overhead wires are always energized at the following locations:
● 66 Street from 28 Ave to 41 Ave
FOR YOUR SAFETY:
● Please be aware that coming into contact with live overhead wires can lead to serious injury or death, please be aware of your surroundings. Keep all high reaching devices such as ladders, drones and remote-controlled planes away from the energized overhead wires.
● Please do not jaywalk across roads or LRT tracks, always use the designated pedestrian walkways and crosswalks,
● Always follow the direction of construction personnel and flaggers and follow traffic and pedestrian signals.
