This is a very old Perth suburb as it is not far from Fremantle so we didn't really expect they would go ahead with going underground but enough ratepayers voted for it so it's all go now.<br />We don't seem to have problems with possums in the metro area at all but there are lots of them in country areas.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-26032774131341388812013-02-24T16:34:58.124+08:002013-02-24T16:34:58.124+08:00No squirrels Delores but it will be great not to h...No squirrels Delores but it will be great not to have to worry about trees and overhead wires etc., in high winds. I really am looking forward to getting rid of the ugliness that poles and wires present. A clear view of the sky will be terrific.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-86242497663772099252013-02-22T20:59:38.766+08:002013-02-22T20:59:38.766+08:00You're losing your squirrel highway?

That's...You're getting underground wiring??<br />That's great news! No more wires blown down by storms, so no more blackouts. Or maybe much fewer blackouts. And no stobie poles to jump out and hit motorists either. No more wires with sneakers tossed over them, no more possums getting electrocuted....it's all good. <br />I wish our SA Govt. would copy this.
