Impact On Us
Through alignment selection and design the Project seeks to avoid areas of significance (AusNet).
A potential alignment corridor passes right through the heart of residential, significance areas, wildlife habitat and public open spaces. Residents live in these regions for the priceless views, their appreciation of nature and desire to live in a rural setting. The irreversible impact on our property values, visual amenity, wildlife, environment and local community is huge.

Get Involved
The only way to make a difference is to get involved. It’s easy to sit back and wait for others to do something but when you are staring at 75-85m towers in a few years time, you will kicking yourself for not doing something when you had the chance. This is OUR only chance to stop these towers, so get involved now.
Welcome to the home of Darley Power Fight. A group of residents in Darley, Coimadai and Merrimu, united against high voltage transmission towers passing through our backyard. We came together through the realisation the transmission line will divide a narrow corridor between Darley and the Lerderderg State Park; altering landscape character, causing widespread damage to critical habitat for threatened species, increasing fire risk to the Park and thousands of residents, destroy our visual amenity, harm local agriculture and will impact businesses and property values. It will completely desecrate, in a few years, what nature has taken millions of years to create.
