Indiana Michigan Power representatives plan to improve electric service reliability for customers in northeast Fort Wayne.
The Robison Park-Lincoln Transmission Line Rebuild Project involves:
Company representatives plan to rebuild the power line in the existing right-of-way, which may require acquiring new or updating existing property easements. Easements are defined land rights that property owners grant the utility to allow for the safe construction, operation and maintenance of the power line.
The project strengthens the electric transmission system by replacing deteriorating towers from the 1920s with modern steel poles. The upgrade ensures the power line complies with the company’s current structural standards, improves the line’s operational performance and reduces the need for frequent equipment repairs.
As a result of the social distancing recommendations made by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, we invite you to join us for a virtual open house to learn more about the project and ask questions. Please provide comments through the "Contact Us" link.
Company representatives also plan to offer two online live chat sessions Wednesday, March 24 from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. EST and 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. EST. The chat sessions feature an instant messaging platform where you can type questions and receive real-time responses from members of our project team.
