Tucson Electric Power crews at work.

Due to COVID-19 concerns, Tucson Electric Power is suspending two public open house meetings that were scheduled on Tuesday and Wednesday next week on its proposed Kino to DeMoss-Petrie 138-kilovolt transmission line.

The new high-voltage power line proposed by TEP would cut through the center of Tucson.

The utility said additional public input opportunities will be posted later on the project website at tep.com/kino-to-demoss-petrie . Comments are still being accepted in writing and electronically.
