The Government of The Gambia (GOTG), with financing from the World Bank\u2019s Gambia Electricity Restoration and Modernization Project (GERMP), intends to construct a High Voltage 225 kV Transmission and Distribution line from Brikama to Jabang at the edge of the Salagi Forest Park where a 225\/33 kV substation will be built. Three 33 kV lines will also be built from the Jabang substation to feed the Bijilo, Old Yundum and Wellingara substations.<\/p>\n

A survey\/census will be conducted to identify all the affected persons along those corridors between 3-17 February 2020. The cut-off date to be included in the census will be Monday February 17th<\/sup> , 2020. Claimants who move into this land or erect structures in the proposed project area on or after February 17th<\/sup><\/strong>\u00a0will not be counted in the census<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The transmission line will start at the edge of the Salagi Forest Park and go along the buffer zone of the Forest up to the Forest billboard at Jamwelleh about 1.8 km off the Sukuta-JambangJelly Highway. From the Forest billboard it will take a right angle along toward the border between Mariama Kunda and Jabang, Labakoreh, Yuna and Latrya before turning left, crossing the Sukuta-Jambangjelleh Highway toward the proposed Solar Power Plant in Jambur.<\/p>\n
