I live at Fox Hill Ruston Norwich Norfolk. I recently learned that a proposed cable relay station may be built very close to where I live. Please could you give me as much information as possible! On how this is possible that a company can propose to do this , this sight is so beautiful! Or is this a case of it will happen any way because the alternative is too expensive, eating into profit. I am all for greener energy! Wind solar ! But I do not want to see this beautiful part of Norfolk trashed !

Advice given

Your comments may relate to the proposals for the Norfolk Vanguard offshore wind farm project. Once the project has been accepted by the Planning Inspectorate (the Inspectorate) you will have an opportunity to register your interest in the application and make representations to us. However the project has not yet been submitted to the Inspectorate and therefore I would encourage you to contact the developer directly to make your concerns heard as the Applicant has a statutory duty to take your views into account.

Advice about responding to the developer's pre-application consultation can be found here: https://infrastructure.planninginspectorate.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Advice-note-8-1v4.pdf

Information about the project can be found on our website: https://infrastructure.planninginspectorate.gov.uk/projects/eastern/norfolk-vanguard/ and the developer's website: http://norfolkvanguard.vattenfall.co.uk/

The developer, Vattenfall, can be contacted by email info@norfolkvanguard.co.uk or phone 01603 567995.
