Substation approved
Gosford Council has approved the installation of a second electrical substation in the Swancott Centre carpark, opposite Woy Woy railway station.
The substation is required to provide power to the new commuter car park, according to a report prepared by council staff.
The report states that the construction of the substation will not impact council's financial position as the transport authority will be responsible for council's costs.
Council will provide the land for the substation and will create an easement of 5.2m by 4.5m to allow maintenance by Energy Australia.
Council will not receive compensation from Energy Australia.
