Bucyrus - East BucyrusArea Improvements Project
AEP Ohio representatives plan to upgrade the electric transmission network serving customers in Crawford County. The Bucyrus-East Bucyrus Area Improvements project involves updating just over 2 miles of 69-kilovolt transmission line between the Bucyrus Substation, located off Southern Avenue, and the East Bucyrus Substation, located off Lincoln Highway.
Upgrading the transmission infrastructure ensures the power grid complies with current engineering and safety standards and supports the area's need for reliable power.
