The construction of civil structures of both the substations has reached the final stage. The supply of important equipment including power transformer and GIS in the substation has reached 65 percent.
Of the 79 towers in the transmission line, foundations for 27 towers have been laid and for 17 foundations have been partially laid. Six towers have been erected. The project will construct a 19 km double circuit from Chilime to Mailung and an 8 km four circuit from Mailung to Trishuli 3 B Hub.
