This new WAPA video highlights the work that crews from our Rocky Mountain region completed in late August 2024, upgrading the Flatiron-Valley 115-kilovolt transmission line. The line is located south of Highway 34 in Loveland, Colorado, and runs east to west into the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Crews raised the height of about 25 H-frame structures to provide more reliable service to the community.
