PSE starts work on Louis Thompson Road power lines
The City and its partners are gearing up for work on Louis Thompson Road. Puget Sound Energy is currently replacing and raising the height of light poles in the project area. This work is being done to keep power lines clear from the City's construction.
Some vegetation will need to be removed in the vicinity of existing poles to facilitate new pole installation. In addition, the canopy of large trees will be trimmed to create clearance for the electric wires on these taller poles. Electrical work will begin June 14. PSE expects this work to be completed by the end of July.
