Suffolk Coastal MP Therese Coffey says an integrated approach is needed for new power projects - including ScottishPower Renewables' (SPR) EA1N and EA2 windfarms to avoid "spaghetti-like cabling" wrecking beauty spots.
Millions shaved off Silvertown Tunnel cost
Transport for London (TfL) has shaved £3M off the final estimated cost of the Silvertown Tunnel.
The saving on TfL s direct capital costs is revealed in meeting agenda papers released ahead of TfL s programmes and investment committee meeting next week.
The final estimated cost for the east London project is now £199M, with £6M spent to date - but this excludes construction costs which are being incurred by the Riverlinx consortium which has a design, build, maintain and finance contract.
The papers add that the cost reduction is “predominantly due to an updated resource forecast, land savings from early site handover and a reduction in the forecast risk for micro tunnelling”.
