    Where are the main power lines to the city.

    How much do we depend on the cables that cross the river near the bridge and if any were damaged by a storm what effect would it have.

    I'm very suspicious about why you want to know. What are you planning?

    He is planning on stealing the power to the entire city. We must organise a march or some sort of protest to stop him...

    I've always wanted to zip line across those yokes.
    I've also wondered how they managed to bring them from one side to the other when first building them.
    I also wonder how they test them!

    Boat?
    Helicopter?
    Did they drag it across rice bridge and up the cliffs?


    I remember the one of the pylons exploded one night going back to around 99/00.
