The Energy Gateway South project included construction of a new 416-mile, 500kV transmission line connecting Medicine Bow, Wyoming, to an area just outside Provo, Utah.
Winco completed 413 miles of conductor installation across remote and rugged terrain, logging 6,407 flight hours. Using specialized helicopters and advanced tension-stringing techniques, the team executed precise aerial wire installation while minimizing extensive ground access and reducing terrain disturbance.
Winco’s coordinated aerial approach helped maintain production through difficult access areas while reducing the need for ground crews and equipment in hazardous terrain.
Winco works alongside utility contractors, project managers, and line crews on some of the country’s most demanding transmission projects. Hear what our partners say about the experience, coordination, and execution our teams bring to the job.
