Upcoming System Maintenance

Tuesday | September 23, 2025
All News

We have several system maintenance projects scheduled for the fall and winter including hardening of transmission infrastructure between Buxton and Avon, and in north Buxton along Cape Creek. Our contractor, Linetec Services, has started staging equipment next to the Fessenden Center and you will see matting equipment being placed in the area of Canadian Hole in the coming weeks. If there are any lane closures or traffic delays necessary for this initial setup, we will post notice as soon as possible.

Also, River City Construction is scheduled to return to the island in mid-October to complete pole replacements and reconductoring in Avon.

We will continue to post updates as we work to make these important upgrades to our system that will enhance reliability for years to come.
