The Works Plan 2.6.3 show works U8 undergrounding by the XC478 pylon but that line has already been put underground. The route starts as shown but instead of turning at right angles eastwards the undergrounding continues northerly on the east side of the field boundary that meets the A659 road. We were informed that the undergrounding work U7 would be from the A659 in the northwest to Garnett Terrace road to the south east. If the works terminate as shown the additional poles/structures in those locations will make field operations very difficult. If the full section cannot be put underground then moving the south east end of the undergrounding works just part of the way, to in line with the east west boundary further south would be a help. The access to the works shown from AP40 on the A659 through the High Moor Farm steading has 2 "steps" in it which means it would go through a cattle yard. The first "step" is correct to show the route going round a building but then the line should go straight southeast through the existing gate and straight down the hedge side to the line of the works. It should not take a second "step" which conflicts with the use of the yard as can be seen on the plan.
