Project Description: BC Hydro needed to realign a 500 kV transmission line through Surrey. A tower in near King George Highway was replaced to alter the alignment. The construction involved the drilling and installation of four micropiles to support the new tower. These micropiles were installed in close proximity to two Fortis BC gas transmission lines.
