Thanks for that most interesting. Grayling strikes again.
I suppose a 5th question is would it have been cheaper to put masts up and support the extension cables from them. Bare cable run overhead is a fraction of the cost of using insulated in trunking.

It's an interesting thought, but I suspect not. I think the construction costs far outweigh the material costs even for the ground level route and the installation costs for installing foundations and working at height would be significantly greater.
