View photo renderings and the detailed route for the new Murden Cove – Winslow 115 kV “missing link” transmission line

As part of our solution to improve electric reliability on Bainbridge Island, PSE is planning to build the new Murden Cove – Winslow 115 kV transmission line between the Winslow and Murden Cove substations to create a transmission loop. Each substation will be connected to two transmission lines. If one line goes out, the other line can still feed the substation and provide power to customers. 

We recently completed more detailed design for the new transmission line. View photo renderings and the specific route on the interactive map on our website. 

The line will follow PSE’s existing distribution system in the road right of way. This means we will collocate the transmission line over existing distribution lines, limiting impacts to private property and environmental resources.
