The line, approximately six miles long, connects ITC’s Sixth Street electric substation in downtown Cedar Rapids to the Beverly substation south of Highway 30. The line will carry electricity at 161 kilovolts (161 kV), up from the 34.5 kV line currently in place. The line runs generally from the Sixth Street substation, west across the Cedar River, along L Avenue NW, before turning south at Shawnee Park. The line crosses First Avenue at 18th Street SW and continues south until it follows the CRANDIC railroad tracks south to the Beverly substation.
