Planning Practice & Research, 2021, vol. 36, issue 1, 41-58

Abstract: Installation of essential infrastructure can challenge not only its specialized supply professionals but also property developers and homeowners. This article investigates these stakeholders’ appraisal of high voltage overhead transmission lines (HVOTLs) in Queensland, Australia. It first assesses risk surrounding developers’ operations and then relays the chief perceptual models applying to the public at large. Investigated next are the two subject groups’ outlook on HVOTLs, their orientation to several categories of infrastructure, and developers’ tolerances when prospecting for sites near electricity facilities. Planning pointers permeate the analysis and discussion of results, leading to the summary and conclusions to the paper.
